no

EMMAUGOH:
no

I think you should see a doctor who would refer you to a psychiatrist and put you on medications if you are evaluated to have ADHD. People with ADHD are very intelligent and creative so it's nothing to be sad or ashamed about and once you get medicated you will be able to switch from the hyperfocus the medication gives to the creative brain of ADHD when the medication wears off.

I have ADD or ADHD-PI (self diagonised for now) I went to see the doctor on Thursday and coincidentally the doctor also had ADHD, he was so emotional when I told him what was wrong with me because he could relate to almost everything I said. We chatted for a long time and I talked about being afraid to take medication because of the negative reviews I've seen online. He said I should never refuse to take medications except I react to them badly, that he stopped because he had the bad side effects but he still struggles on everyday basis. He said if you don't have the side effects it would change your life totally and that I shouldn't mind the reviews I see online. There is no way the FDA would approve bad drugs for the public and ADHD medications have been studied for decades so their long term effects are also known.

We talked about college and he said it was a miracle he made it through college that he barely could focus but passed all his exams. I told him it seemed like he was describing me because I find it extremely difficult to focus on things that are boring to me like reading boring textbooks but I was smart that I could expand on concepts in the exam and pass.

He gave me a referral letter to meet a psychiatrist on Tuesday. I'm a very smart guy and I was amongst the top of my class in the university and I've excelled more than any of them in real life so I'm not ashamed to meet a psychiatrist to do better.

Most symptoms I have include:
Anxiety
Lack of focus
Procrastination
Social media addition (cause I don't like boring stuffs)
Short attention span
Low working memory
Lack of emotional control
Day dreaming

Some of the things you listed here do affect me, not all. But does it mean I also have ADHD? I don't know. But sometimes I do odd things, which make some people I think am kind of physco or crazy. Let me read more on this, this is the first time am reading this, maybe this might open a new chapter in my life to know why I have been doing those odd things.

What I read on the internet about this is scary. I have most of the symptoms. lol

Bro that's how majority of us in this part of the world found out we are ADHD. Will post an Audio of 211 mb about ADHD. The funny thing about ADD is that almost every person suffering from it behave the same way and what makes it unique is that if you read about the symptoms for the first time u feel someone is talking about you.
