Being more distracted on dex would be a very unusual reaction.

Being dx'd by two adult ADHD experts is sort of a mixed bag. On one hand, they should know ADHD when they see it. However, I think some experts on disorders tend to think everyone that they see has that disorder. I can't remember exactly the phrase...something like when you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail?

Racing thoughts always sets off bipolar alarm bells for me. Has this been explored? Do you have any family hx of bp or substance abuse?

Were these experts physicians or psychologists? How did they dx you? Interview alone or objective and self report tests in addition?

Best,
EE
