To be fair, if you've been diagnosed as an adult, ADHD is a huge part of who you are. You've lived with it your entire life and you've developed coping mechanisms accordingly.

But I get what you're saying!

I was diagnosed at 24, it's just a disability. It's not part of who I am at my core. Developing coping mechanisms to deal with the disability isn't part of me, it's necessity.

If you can make it so I never had it, I'm in. No idea what that would mean for me, how I'd suddenly be a different person, but if it means I get to not have all the bullshit memories from my childhood and instead have had a nOrMaL life, yes please.

Just "curing" it, as in, I don't have it anymore starting now, wouldn't do me any good.
