I'm in my teens, and have been diagnosed with anxiet. and ADHD. I'm usually on heavy medication, but sosmetimes my mood tends to act up. I'll try to keep my chin up, and tell my doctor at my appointment next week. Thank you once again. Good to hear.

The reaction Evil and I gave is the one I myself sought years ago and never got. There is noting worst then being left feeling things are hopeless. But I can ensure you, its not. But teenager years are the hardest as everyone has such expectations of teens to grow up. The pressure is crazy.But teens are but a blink of an eye in the lifetime of any human. Depression and anxiety are things that haunt me. Both can be brought under control, but never go away. Te doctor can help a lot.

I'm also glad they tend to pick up on problems kids have quicker such as learning difficulties or other problems. I waited until 23 to find out I had problems. Look at ADHD as giving you an edge over others in ways they do not know. That's good to know I guess.Being an adult sounds confusing, it makes me kind of scared of the future and how I will turn out because of the state my mental health is in currently.

Yeah. It took a while before they found out though. I kept on complaining about things to my parents (back then my parents called mental disease an "excuse") but eventually they gave in and suprise suprise. Not only did I have ADHD but I also had anxiety. But yes, I am glad they were able to diagnose me earlier than some, otherwise I do not know how long I would've gone clueless.
