What are some major symptoms of ADD/ADHD?!


Question: What are some major symptoms of ADD/ADHD!?
Things that make me think I might have it;
1!. I always forget what I am doing consistantly!. I can be in the middle of telling a story and then forget what I was just saying
2!. I lose things on a consistant basis!.
3!. I have trouble reading books that i enjoy let alone textbooks!. I can't read for 3 minutes without my mind drifting somewhere else!.

Does this sound like add or adhd!? Are there more obvious symptoms that i should be looking for to tell my doctor about!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

OMGG yes it does sound like ADD!. deffinatly!.
I have ADD, these were my exact symptoms, with a few more + less::
i cant read anything i dont enjoy,
i am very clumsy,
bad coordination (if that even has anything to do with it)
horrible handwriting
cant concentrate expecially at school with MATH
when i'm on the computer or reading for a long time, the words just start to blur, like theres a wall between me and the book and i just can't focus!.

of course, everyone has slightly different symptoms but i believe you should deffinatly go to the doc's and test for it!.
i am on a medication called "Concerta", it helps alot!.
good luck!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

ADD= Attention Deficit Disorder
ADHD= Attention Deficit w/ Hyperactivity Disorder

Sounds Like ADD!. Hard to concentrate, keep organized, poor time management!.

A doctor will have you fill out a questionnaire and ask about your symptoms to determine if you have ADD or something else!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
