[quote=Anonymous]My high achieving (straight A's through every year that was graded) DD was diagnosed as a Junior in HS. She was diagnosed after her brother was and we noticed they had a lot of the same characteristics. She actually asked for the appointment. While she was high achieving she put everything off until the last minute then it became a scramble to get it done. She always did but it was a lot of stress/anxiety that she could have avoided. She is medicated now and she wishes she had done it sooner. She has a mild case and the meds help tremendously. She already had extra time on tests for a medical condition that she is very open about so there were no changes for her academic wise. She usually doesn't use the extra time now that she's found the right medication and dosage. [/quote]
