Hey I just registered and this is my first post. I have not yet seen a doctor to find out if I have add / adhd. I have suspected that I might have it for a few years now, but never made an effort to check it out. I've scored extremely high on every test I have taken; I got a 107 on this site's exam. I'm going to describe some of my behavior patterns and if anyone has the time to reply with some advice I'd appreciate it. =) I'm 22 years old and have been married for a little over 3 years. I grew up playing sports and video games; eventually the video games took precedence over the sports. I went to a private school with a curriculum that made my college classes look like a joke. Halfway through my junior year of HS I broke down. I remember crying one night on my bed while trying to study. I couldn't keep my eyes on the page, I must have read the same paragraph 5 or 6 times without retaining any of the information. I remember the first time I yelled at a sibling. I was 8 years old...even at that age I realized a change in myself. I swear I could almost feel a small twinge in my head or something when it happened. I often project myself into different situations that have taken place or that haven't even happen, and that made up scenario feels more real than the real one. I remember clenching my fist and lifting my arm slightly as if to throw a punch while eating at a chinese buffet. My wife had been telling me a story of someone who had wronged her when she was a young girl. Anger triggers that in me often. I get bored so often, yesterday I went from PC to PS2 to PC to PS2 I don't know how many times until my wife commented about it. The games I play require my full concentration, and it relieves me from my wandering mind. Though the games are entertaining, I really feel that I play them as much as I do because I have a desire to have my surroundings run as fast as my brain. I get angry quickly. I act on an impulse rather than an educated decision. I just moved to Tennessee from Florida two weeks ago. I was feeling a sense of despair from everything I was going through one night while I was at work and quit my job. I got up from my desk, called my wife and said, "ok tennessee it is." I'm 22 and haven't finished any schooling. I received 100% scholarship to florida schools through my act / gpa stats. I got one semester from my AA and left, 2 months from massage therapy license and left. The feeling that I may be getting closer to a solution through this website has given me an adrenaline rush and interrupted my train of thought. I feel dizzy...
