can you have ADD or ADHD and go well at school?!


Question: Can you have ADD or ADHD and go well at school?
I have ocd and I think I might have ADD or ADHD along with it. I go relatively well at school getting 11-17th in the grade, could I have ADD or ADHD but still go well at school

Answers:

If you have OCD then chances are you have ADD. I have OCD, ADD, and Tourette's Syndrome. Through most of my Elementary School years i did well. Half of Middle School i did terrible due to the lack of attention. So far in High School (I'm a Sophomore) I've done well. This is because in mid-seventh grade year i started taking Vyvanse, it has been very effective since i started eighth grade. The past 3 years i've done very well academically. So yes, if you have ADD/ADHD you CAN still do well, it just may be more difficult. I'd recommend taking Vyvanse.

Past Experience



Minor depression can allow you to do well academically . Your attention can be focused on school success and later on when social disorders come into play your academic abilities get so distracted that success can elude you.
