Answers:
Ok, sounds like to me you have add, I know I was diagnosed with it like seven years ago and my parents had to take me to like alot of different doctors just to get that diagnoses. You usually talk to your regular doctor about it and he or she will refer you to a psychietriest, and no that does not mean that you are crazy or nuts or anything, they are just the doctors that specailize in add and adhd. Then he or she will give you some like easy tests and talk to you about your symptoms then if he or she decides you have add they can prescibe some medication. And trust me, the medication DOES help. Before they put me on the medication I couldn't concentrete, I almost failed the second grade, but once they put me on it, it was like I had such an easier time just paying attention to things...well good luck with your act

Add may not exist. Doctors use this just so they can put a dignosis on you. ,,,,and make the parents happy.
