Reply to comment by Ruca705 in Study finds brain changes associated with ADHD remission. As the brains of those with ADHD mature, some individuals may repetitively engage in strategies that compensate for symptoms. These repetitive behaviors may result in the brain changes seen in those who went into remission. by Wagamaga

Could it be called remission if the medication worked?

I got a diagnosis at age 41, I take 100mg atomoxitine (generic strattera) and it has really changed my life.

I no longer life in a constant state of fight or flight, I can focus better and I'm a lot less prone to being locked on one task. Additionallynive grown emotionally and I can now empathise vs a best sympathizing.

Also things are easier, jobs, projects etc. I am think of a clear path forwards and carry it out
