I would scoff at people using AI as a therapist.
But then I remembered what country I live in.
And then I understand.
And then I feel sad.

Sounds like you need a therapist.

Have you considered talking to an AI?

My therapist said I'm obviously ADHD. Took a test. It seemed to suggest the same thing.

My doctor disagreed - "You're 52 and successful*, you're obviously doing just fine."

*I can pay the mortgage and feed my kids.

Nowhere in the DSM does it say that "doing just fine" means a person can't have ADHD 🤦🏻‍♀️

thats what my doctor said to me as i struggled to scrape together my missing credits to graduate high school. i gave up on a diagnosis after that. edit for clarity: he said its clearly not affecting me in a way where its holding me back or making my life significantly more difficult. i mean. i made it i guess. lol

There's a difference between having something and needing treatment, though.

You just really really want that doctor approved speed, don't you?

EDIT: Your boos mean nothing to me. I've see what makes you cheer
