Question: Has anyone taken an ADHD test before!? What does it consist of and why does it take so long!?
My doctor suggested that I take an ADHD test and referred me to a testing site!. My testing date is in a couple weeks!. They told me that it should take 4-6 hrs to complete and that seems like a really long time!. I don't know how I'm going to sit through a test that takes that long!. Anyone have any experience with this!? Am I going to be bored out of my mind!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was diagnosed when i was a child, my parents had me on ritalin, and it has followed me all through my life into adulthood, the best way i can describe it for me is like listening to a radio in your mind and the channel just keeps skipping to other stations , and is especially bad first thing in the morning, you just can't focus on one station, i also took a test in adulthood, and of course i was put on 2 different medications which really seemed to help, the test was a couple of hours and mainly focused on my attention issues, past experiences etc!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
