I think I have adhd?


For example I need to do a project for school yet I just can't get myself to do it. I just put it off. Also I have trouble sitting still in classes I feel like I'm going to explode sometimes. I done want to take pills all the time. Is there something I can take when I think I need it. Please help. Also I am very tall and over weight if that helps.

Should I get tested for it?

One of the better quizes for ADHD is located at: www.addresources.org look under adult or child articles and print out the checklist. This covers every aspect of your life, not just the obvious symptoms of ADHD. The symptoms you have described sound typical and it won't likely get any better without treatment. The stimulant medications can be taken only when you need them, but most people who have a good response to the medications usually take them consistently because they just feel much better on them. It's best to find a psychiatrist or pediatrician who specializes in treating ADHD as many professionals, even the average psychiatrist has biases against ADHD or the medicatioins to treat it. The best way the dose the medication is based on your response to the medication - not on weight. Good luck!

yeah sounds like ad/hd i have it too thats how i am

the only thing that helps you is taking some pills
other than that you just have to learn to deal with it sorry

You may just have bad anxiety. The best answers for anxiety--in my experience--are found in the Bible.
