ADHD, my wife just got a diagnosis

This week my wife, of nearly 30 years, had a psyc evaluation this week and was diagnosed with ADHD.

Today was her first day on a base dose of Ritalin. by about 10am she made the comment "I don't know if it is placebo or not...". For most of the day she was 'on fire', until 1/2 way through cooking dinner when she started struggling with focus and keeping track (she has a sore foot at the moment and being hyper focused all day may have exasperated that).

It will be interesting to see how this develops (spoken as an undiagnosed autistic 50 y/o)
