[quote=Anonymous]She's an adult, this is her business now, if she shut you down when you broached it before, it is unlikely she will be more receptive next time. Either she is very resistant to the idea that this is an issue, in which case the only option is to let her figure it out herself, or your relationship is such that she is resistant specifically to the suggestion coming from you. In the latter case, continuing to bring it up will only make it less likely that she ultimately gets checked out for ADHD because that would mean admitting you are right and if you have the kind of combative relationship that makes that hard, she will fight against it.

Leave it alone. Focus on having a good relationship between the two of you and especially on being mutually respectful and having good boundaries. She's an adult now and you have to treat her like one, the more you resist this the worse it will get. You absolutely cannot try to micromanage her health or her personal relationships at this point, it will be disappointing for you and drive her away.

Stop trying to control her.[/quote]
