Where was this information 20 years ago?

I am a 33 yo woman who has spent my entire life trying to explain myself to others. The rain drops feel like pins poking my skin, my socks and shoes make my feet feel "claustrophobic", I have a need to touch things when I walk by them, the daylight is so bright I want to wear sunglasses even on cloudy days, I CONSTANTLY have to bounce my leg(s) to satisfy some internal need. I thought i may have been living with ADHD but didn't fit that "mold". Reading through the checklist was almost life changing for me as I finally feel validated and not just crazy!
