Don't waste your time trying to give yourself a diagnosis. I believe that ADHD symptoms are some of the same ones as just being intelligent, basically it is like when you are trying to learn something that doesn't interest you, your brain waves aren't working as hard and the person can be at an average to below average level where as if the subject interests you your brain is at an above average level. I have ADHD but I don't pay attention to labels like that, just remember that if you are not doing as well as you would like on a boring subject be patient with yourself and don't jugde yourself for it. You will make up for it on the other subjects. This part of ADHD also seems like a natural state it only makes logical sense. Try to do what interests you more and you will be more successful as anyone would. This is not always easy if you are in school and you have to learn what you are , but just ride it out after school it gets much easier.
