HighFunctioning 01-20-07, 08:47 PM Well, if the number is 4 and the two numbers to get that were 2 and 2 or 1 and 3 or so on, you haveanADD.ition operation No, not really. Only a professional can make an official diagnosis, but you'll want to do some research leading to that point if applicable, such as: Look at the diagnostic criteria. (http://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/adhd/symptom.htm) Perhaps take one of the several self-tests available. (http://amenclinics.com/ac/tests/) You could also go to an Internet forum to read about the daily experiences of people with ADD. (http://www.addforums.com) Welcome to the forums, by the way. :) Michiko74 01-20-07, 09:25 PM If you hang around these forums and go, "that's so me" to a lot of the threads.. chances are you're in the right forum. meadd823 01-24-07, 01:46 AM My mother gave me a book titled ADD in adults which I did not have the attention span to read beyond page three until a neuropsychtrist gave me some medications for ADHD and I could read past page three. Once I could sit down for longer than three minutes I found I could read the entire book in an afternoon. After the expereience and reading the book I figured my mom and the doctor were probably right I am ADHD. |
