11. I easily become upset.
12. I seem to be thin skinned and many things upset me.
14. I am more comfortable when moving than when sitting still.
17. There is a lot of "static" or "chatter" in my head.
18. Even when sitting quietly, I am usually moving my hands or feet.
23. I am unable to stop daydreaming.
I am 15 years old, a girl and yeh, What can I do, I told mum I think I have ADD but she laughed and didn't take it seriously.

hi i read this and though i cant help you much all i can suggest is you approach your doctor yourself as you are able to do this and anything you talk about is confidential and they cant even talk to your mum about it! its your health and no one has the right to laugh at any concerns you may have...also maybe there is someone in school or college you could talk to. maybe your mum thinks you are using it as an excuse for not doing so well in school etc bear in mind parents dont like to think they have failed!
all i will say is it isnt that easy to get a proper diagnosis for ADD.
hope this helps
