Which subtype of ADHD do you have?

Inattentive - Diagnosed earlier this year at 44, & while I had wondered to myself off & on if I had it, it still took me a couple months to “believe” & accept. I was v good at masking & basically used the behavior/ symptoms to beat myself up. It was v internal for me. The relief is the compassion I’m now able to offer myself.

Predominantly inattentive

Combined. I was diagnosed when I was 6 by a child psychiatrist 

ADHD Combined, I was diagnosed at 8 treated with agitating for 5 years. Went off meds at 13. Struggled through life, thought I was fine though. Then at 42 I left my husband, my life had fallen apart after years of ADHD overwhelm with 2 young kids, a narcissistic husband and no family support. Thenc3 months later my father was murdered in my birth country. 18 months later I was rediagnosed with ADHD-C and a new diagnosis of Bipolar 2, which was triggered by trauma. ADHDers are susceptible to this when experiencing high stress or trauma. So please be aware. It took me 5 years to get my medication levels right! I've been good for 6 months.

Combined here, was diagnosed, one year ago, at age 36 by a psychiatrist. I figured out myself almost 2 years ago, but it took many months before I finally made the appointment to seek help, then it took another 6 months until I was diagnosed.

Some bonus questions: How old were you when you got diagnosed (if not self-diagnosed)? When did you realize that it was ADHD? I got diagnosed about a month ago (at 34), though I had known what it was for more than a year prior.

I’m predominately inattentive, as diagnosed by a psychiatrist.

I’m not sure
