fyi my sleep lab seems to think that ADD symptoms are absolutely a symptom of sleep deprivation. The two do correlate, though causation is unclear. My psychiatrist disagrees, or possibly doesn't care. He just treats the symptoms.
I very much second the sentiment about being diagnosed earlier.... actually I was told about fifteen years ago that I probably did have it, but that they did not treat adults due to concerns about addiction. I managed to break through this attitude recently but it took a good eighteen months of psych evals before they decided that I do not have an addictive personality. Strattera is not in my provider's formulary or it might have been easier. The choices were Ritalin or nothing and they were inclined for a long time to go with nothing.
