I really think I have ADHD, here's why:
-I can not ever be just sitting without doing anything, If I must sit still im constantly braiding my hair or bouncing my legs!.
-I have a horrible attention span, I sit down to practice piano and I something catches my attention in the room, and Im gone!.
-I find it hard to hold eye contact when talking to someone and people are constantly calling me out on that!.
-I have a terrible problem interrupting people, If someone's telling a story and I have something to say i MUST interrupt or I go crazy!.
-I can't tell a story to save my life!. I end up going into another story in the middle of the first one!.
-When I was younger I was horrible at talking at inappropriate times!.!.!.I still do actually!.
-Often I get urges just to do completely crazy and random things!.
-During class and tests I lose interest in things and often zone out and start to hum or doodle!.

I agree with ChicChic that its best you list down the stuff you know and go see a doc - not any doc but one who is well versed in ADHD and other behavioral disorders!. Many docs are not experts in this field so select careful or you will be misdiagnosed!. If you are not ready for the doc and are curious whether you have adhd, then take this quick screener here:

Sounds like ADHD/ADD to me!. I used to display all those symptoms!. Over the years I've taken a few meds here and there, but never for too long of a stretch of time!. I've learned to control it by now even without meds (that's not to say that they haven't helped me) but I can say with certainty that you're in the same boat as I was!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
maybe!. List these things off to ur parents or gardian, then go to a doctor and list the same things!. I wish you well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
ADHD is one of the most over diagnosed conditions!. Every child that can't sit still in church or has a hard time concentrating is all of a sudden labeled ADD or ADHD!. And what child doesn't often display those symptoms!? Some people however are genuinely ADD and may require medication!. It's not necessary though if you feel it's not really affecting your like in a negative way!. Many people on ADD meds claim they make them feel groggy and like they have no soul so they're not for everyone!. Pot has also been known to help ADD symptoms although I am not saying that going out and smoking alot of dope is the answer!. Talk to a doctor but if your grades are fine and your comfortable with the way you are then I wouldn't worry too much!. I think they dish out meds to ADD kids to readily!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
