I always get sidetracked and daydream in class. like i dont pay attention [i still get A's and B's somehow]. sometimes i will space out when people talk to me and they get mad sometimes. My friend always says "pay attention" or "i think u have ADD" .. this is botherin me now that someone pointed it out to me. Is this ADD.. if it matters 13/f

I doubt it's ADD, although your friends say that they are just tring to say pay attention. It doesn's mean it so literly though. If it really starts to bother you tell your parents and get tested, I hop this helps you! [ xOshannenOx's advice column | Ask xOshannenOx A Question ]

I think you just occasionally become a teenage space cadet...which is pretty normal. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
perfectallycutec answered Tuesday May 17 2005, 5:10 pm: The same exact thing happens to me ALL the time. Don't worry, it's not ADD, it's normal! You just probably have a bigger imagination then everyone else. But if you're still not sure, try trivia game. I know it sounds weird, but they really help you concentrate and think more. But whatever you do, DON'T BE WORRIED!!! There is nothing to worry about at all!!!
fragileivory answered Tuesday May 17 2005, 5:08 pm: It could be. I space out all the time when people talk to me, and that's my biggest problem with ADD. Do you find yourself unable to follow directions? Does someone tell you to do something and you forget seconds later?
It may also just be that you're excited about something else or bored. The only way to find out for sure is to ask a doctor. Good luck, and let me know if you need anything else. [ fragileivory's advice column | Ask fragileivory A Question ]
