Hi everyone,
I have been trying to get a diagnosis for ADHD for the last god know how many years.
I am still trying because it has been confirmed by all the on-line tests. I even had an on-line diagnosis through a US specialist which was inconclusive but I was recommended to ask to see some one in UK.
Through out these years I have read a lot on the subject and I have noticed that I fit so many symptoms especially that I have tried so much to change some of my "habits" without success although no one believes me and everyone thinks that I am just being manipulative.
Anyway I have a big problem with keeping secrets. Not always but when it comes to something that I must keep inside for my good, I tend to fail.
I have tried to convince myself that I am just too much of an honest person and I have actually tried to be honest because it is just so much easier anyway.
But recently I have heard that too much honesty could be a symptom but the devil's advocate in me tells me that I seem to find everything as symptom of ADHD when I look for it.
So I am having doubt, especially that I think it might just be something that I have inherent from my mother.
So I guess my question is can too much honesty really be considered a symptom or am I pushing it too far now?
Thanks
Babak
