Answers:
Hi, my son has ADD, a neurologist did a few tests on him to help diagnose the condition, it is a hyperactivity in the brain. The smallest things distract him and he has a had time focusing on one certain thing at a time, he has a hard time controlling his toughts and actions. Once on Concerta he is maintaining an A average and doing fabulous. I would definitely ask a parent to take you to see a doctor, Concerta is a drug that will definitely make your life easier and it's only taken once a day. If the condition is not real bothersome and you are doing well in school, then not to worry, most people grow out of this condition and learn how to control it. Good luck to you sweetie! I hope it works out!
The principal characteristics of ADHD are inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms appear early in a child's life. Because many normal children may have these symptoms, but at a low level, or the symptoms may be caused by another disorder, it is important that the child receive a thorough examination and appropriate diagnosis by a well-qualified professional.
