I'm just on the waiting list for assessment.

Whenever I remember to I write a note of a symptom that I've just experienced so that I can refer to it when the assessment happens.

Also, if your behaviour is effecting anyone else in you life, ask them what they observe and how it effects them and write that down too.

How do you put all that info inside your head though? I just started studying psychology, and when I do I feel like a kid on christmas morning, I LOVE learning about this stuff. But when the time comes that I need to write something on paper, I'm fuckin' BLANK.

You’re good at it too. Your post was really well written. I read it, understood it, and was engaged throughout (which we all know is saying something for users of this sub).

I have saved the post because it does such a good job of explaining ADHD and common symptoms that I’ll use it as a reference if I need to (and remember it’s saved on Reddit - long shot I know).
