*i had big mouth by then was very provocative got into numerous fights with siblings!.
* i couldn't tie my shoe laces until age 11
*couldn't ride a bike until 12
* i run up and down the stairs alot causing irritation to my siblings,!. but i cud hold myself back when my parents came home
*always jumping up and down on my parents bed, regardless of whether they were home or not
*always behind in studies, only person in class to have failed most multiplication tables test, couldn't put ABC's in order until 13, getting my parents called beause of cheating in a test, and multiple times not handing in projects or whenever i did they were rubbish

*suspended for 2 days due to verbally abusing a classmate infront of the whole class
*got into trouble numerous times because of provocation of colleagues again
* never could concentrate ( also happened in childhood)
* everytime friends would come over to my house i wud have arguments, and i wud also play games they didn't like, e!.g!. asking them to fight me by kicking them
* my teachers constantly complain about me fidgeting with any objects that are close to me!.
* having PE and finding that im still full of energy, enough to go to the school gym right after, come home and not sleep till 3AM
*at night when my parents tell me to go to bed i roam around my small room randomly without any purpose at all!.
*besides being moderately hyperactive most times i have freqeunt intense outbursts of short hyperactive episodes where i go wild jumping on sofas, kicking any object everywhere!. the most recent episode was today when i literally went buzurks and i had only slept 3 hours but still i had the energy to go completely bananas, and the episode lasted for about 30 minutes and im not totally calmed down yet my legs and hands like always are still restless

Answers:
Yes, you have ADHD, classic ADHD!. That is a very rare thing for me to say to anyone on the internet!. It is impossible to diagnose someone without ever seeing them but everything you describe screams ADHD!.
You would have ADHD type C (combined type) this combines both the innatentive and learning problems typoe aswell as the hyperactive/impulsive type!.
If you have not been diagnosed you need to see a doctor to be diagnosed as soon as possible!.
All your problems are in line with ADHD!. The three main area's of ADHD are Attention deficit, hyperactivity and poor impulse control!.
ATTENTION DEFICIT - this is seen in you being behind in your studies and needing a lot of extra help!. You sound like you are actually quite itellegint and innatention is stopping you from achieving to your potential!. Also with your concentration difficulties!.
HYPERACTIVITY - You have all the symptoms of ADHD hypoeractivity like!. Needing far less sleep than normal, seeming to have lots more energy after exersize rather than less, always being told to stop fidgeting, pacing around your room unable to sleep, running and jumping!.
POOR IMPULSE CONTROL - which explains things like being suspended from school, breaking things, kicking out at people and basically gettiung into big trouble!.
Other symptoms of ADHD usually include
Poor fine motor coordination - as seen in your inability to tie your shoes!. I am willing to bet you also suffer from problems with handwriting!.
Acting out emotions - Having ADHD does not make you aggressive but it does make you act out your emotions rather than think about them!. When a normal person is happy they may smile or laugh, an ADHD person usually jumps around and skips!. When angry a normal person may store the feeling inside but an ADHDer is more likely to act on it!.

dude omg!. you just need something to do!. omg u are soooo saad XD!. get some discipline cause u sound like a freak!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I did that before, learn to discipline yourself and someday you'll grow out of the jumping around thing!. ADHD isn't bad, it allows you to concentrate what you truly want to do!. Make your world, it won't make it for you!. Find jobs, classes you like only, or other things!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Although you have some of the symptoms of both, all of the symptoms tell a different story!. I don't think u are either fully!. Being aware of what your doing when your doing it shows that there is a much deeper rooted problem!. Your very intelligent from the way u speak you have a lot of something I would almost lean to Hyper Tension/anixety disorder as part of the problem I also believe you have gone thru some serious trauma earlier in life that you haven't excepted yet!. o
Dr's are too quick to throw a child on medication and label them as adhd or add then we wonder why our society is dependant on a qick fix!. Obvious answer is you need to see a professional that you can trust to address this, it could be a metabolic imbalance of some kind that needs to have lab work run to find the answer!. All I can say is bless you for asking this again so your question might be given some more consideration!. Honestly if you were my child/ oh wait is that u son!? No seriously you need your parents to be more involved in whats going on with you before you go in to a down nosed spirial or total depression!. Good luck-Blessed Be!. Check Bi Polar sounds more prolific!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have ADHD and I think your story is consistent with ADHD!. I also think you have some behavioral issues because it sound like you like to break rules!. This can be tied to ADHD, too!.
I grew up with ADHD and took all the medications and what not!. Meds are not the best want to conquer ADHD but they can help with the concentration part of it!. Everything else is stuff you're going to have to deal with on your own!. Work hard to control your impulses!. It's a constant effort that will have to make for the rest of your life, but your life will be much more managable!. I'm 25 now and still battle ADHD!. I don't take any medications and I work very hard to do well at my 2 jobs!. But I'm happy with how I've turned out, despite my ADHD!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
