Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Well this is obvious since you can't sit still long enough to type right. I would say go see a doctor just to make sure and get some medication.

DeAr A.D.D
I think you should bring up the subject with you mom or dad.You should be like mom(whoeva) i think i have A.D.D . If they dont belive you say you are serious you would like to go to the doctor and be tested for various reasons.Dont make such a big deal unless your mom(dad)does not go throgh the trouble to help you.

It sounds like you MAY have ADD. If you have had any of these symptoms for more than 6 months that I listed, then you need to see and talk to a doctor about this so you can get prescribed medicine that will help calm your symptoms.
I got this list of syptoms from [Link](Mouse over link to see full location). You can also go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and do a search about ADD.
