ADHD


Question Posted Sunday December 3 2006, 8:08 pm

Ok so my family has a long line of ADD and ADHD. My mom is the only one in my family who dos not have it, but many people on her side of her family have it too. The problem is my school work is starting to go down a substantul(Sp?) amount because i am restles and i cant focus. I want to ask my parents about seeing the dr. My brothers and dad go to but im to shy they will think i am faking or something. The reason i know i have it is because my bro said that i act the same way he acted when he was not medicated.
Please help, soon.

Go ask your mom if you can see a dr. because you're worried that you might have ADD/ADHD. It's nothing to be shy about and if they think you're faking it or something let the doctor prove it.

If they do care, they'll take you to the DR because ADD/ADHD without medication can effect your school work in a bad way...

well im sure they will understand i mean it runs in your family right? so just tell your parents that you can focus in school and just give them other reason why you might have it.
hope i helped. =]
