I was diagnosed late (I'm 31) after a horrible performance evaluation. I was placed on a performance improvement plan and I was later "let go" from my last company. I was being treated for anxiety and work-place issues when my shrink started down the ADHD path. I've been diagnosed for a few months and I with it was acceptable to tell potential employers that I have ADHD, but its OK because I'm in control now. Taking meds, I even have a coach!

I've already been labeled a "job-hopper" - 6 jobs in 10 years I would think hardly qualifies! Every job has been progressive (even if some were impulsive moves).

Now I'm back at the search... my problem is that I'm impulsive, especially when following up! How do I not look like a pest??
