Question: Are there likely to be any changes in the way people are diagnosed. My psychiatrist when diagnosing me was clearly wanting examples of misbehaviour and getting in trouble due to symptoms as a child, yet from all I'm reading online it seems to be fairly common knowledge that women/innattentive often don't have the behahavioural issues, and it's not necessarily particularly noticable until puberty kicks in.
  
  I ask as innattentive who also has an immense fear of getting into trouble/told off. I felt like I was being held to the same standards in diagnoses as the typic naughty 10 year old boy.
Answer: You are correct.  Diagnosticians who only diagnose  naughty children as ADHD are making a huge error.
