I've heard there are mild cases of ADHD. What excately would symptoms be like with a mild case? Also can one get by in school with inattentive ADHD if one's ADHD was overlooked and wasn't diganosed until an adult?

ADHD non-hyperactive
Hi, I have ADHD and graduated High School with Honors. -very difficult for me to study, but my parents forced me through it(thank goodness). I was diagnosed in my first term of my first year at university-age 18 with ADHD non hyperactive.
*I couldn't focus and complete things.
*Would read a full page and hardly knew what I read.
*I was irritated and frustrated about things easily,
took things to heart(hurt emotionally and easily at times), picked on by fellow students through school.
*A million things on my mind all the time.

Best thing to do is get tested by your family doctor. It changed my life completely Smile
