I'm a 70 year old grandmother to one kid with adhd and anxiety and another kid with autism and anxiety. Guess how I finally learned that I have adhd, autism, and anxiety?
 
That's quite a way to find out, indeed!
Might not be hereditary, if so maybe she passed it on to them. If not, they gave it to her via aggravation! My mother used to say we kids were driving her to drink!

Pretty sure it's hereditary. Bunch of cousins, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, once removed, etc, who have these disorders. Came from my mom's family. From my dad I inherited Migraine Disorder and passed that on to my daughter and both grandchildren too. Wish science could find a way to break the chain of heredity.
