I think I need adderall?!


Question: I think I need adderall?
After self diagnosing myself with add based on my add symptoms, I finally realize what is so wrong with me. I have read many things about add and adhd and I have concluded that I have add. I don't know how to go about getting any help. To be honest, I have a friend who gave me some adderall to try and I felt so normal. Usually, any social situation is extremely unbearable to me, I go off somewhere in my mind and I start to make up conversations in my head... And when I take tests, I think about how I can bubble in the bubbles perfectly. I get so caught up in this, that I forget to do well on the test. If this bubble is not perfect, the next one will be better! I Don't think I have adhd, but instead add- please correct me if there is not a difference. My grades suffer poorly and I get so frustrated at how bad I am doing that any chance of fixing them make me feel so overwhelmed.
I was wondering how I can go about getting any add tests to determine my condition. I am fifteen years old, so I hope my Doctor won't question my legitimacy considering there are many potential abusers. I don't care if I don't get adderall, I just know in my heart that I need something. Each day feels like another day in my own mental prison, I want to be normal and I want to have a normal conversation, and I want to be assertive and have good grades but so many things are holding me back. It may be important to note that I smoke marijuana every four weeks or so, and I will be more than willing to stop so as to avoid any inaccuracies in my doctor determining my mental state. I am more worried about drug tests. I don't think of marijuanna as such a bad thing, but I just found out that it may not be all that good for add. I wish I oculd think of more to say, I just know there is.. Well, any help is greatly appreciated.. I am worried about my future..
