What were the circumstances that led you to being diagnosed with ADHD?

What response have you had to medication? I ask as someone who might have had/still have ADHD but has never been diagnosed and has a pretty strong irrational fear of behavior-modifying drugs.

Caffeine is a behavior-modifying drug, yet people don't think anything about it. So is nicotine. So is marijuana. So is alcohol.

So dudeeees at 21 I got diagnosed with ADHD whoop whoop. Ritalin seems to help a bit, but I feel definitely that you still need to consciously put your mind to a task, it's no wonder cure-all to make you start working.
