Ummh, I'm new on this forum so forgive me if I make some mistakes >.< and also English isn't my mother language so I'm sorry if i make grammatical mistakes.

I'm a 16 yr old girl. I never knew about ADHD until about 1 month ago. I was browsing about this person on YouTube and found someone asking if that person has ADHD. Out of curiosity I googled about ADHD and found it on Wikipedia. I'm not really into reading so I just went straight to the symptoms. I was kinda shocked because I had most (but not all) of the symptoms.

1. Be easily distracted, miss details, forget things, and frequently switch from one activity to another : Yes, I forgot things frequently ^^; My mom complains about this to me all the time.

2.Have difficulty maintaining focus on one task : Yes, I like multitasking. I just can't focus on just one thing. Focusing on one task makes me kinda uncomfortable.

3. Become bored with a task after only a few minutes, unless doing something enjoyable : Yes. My mom often complains about this also.

4. Have difficulty focusing attention on organizing and completing a task or learning something new : Yes, unless that task interests me. Sometimes although that task is interesting I still have difficulties organizing it. I used to have an organizer but I stopped having it because I keep forgetting that i have an organizer ^^;

5. Have trouble completing or turning in homework assignments, often losing things (e.g., pencils, toys, assignments) needed to complete tasks or activities : Yes. I often lose my keys, forgetting to bring books that I need for school (in my school they don't have lockers so you keep your books at home and bring only the needed books to school), and many else.

6. Not seem to listen when spoken to : Yes, my parents often complain about this. Sometimes I don't even realize that they're talking to me.

7. Daydream, become easily confused, and move slowly : Yes, I often daydream.

8. Have difficulty processing information as quickly and accurately as others : Yes. Usually I have to read / listen to that information several times more than others, unless that info is interesting for me.

9. Struggle to follow instructions : Yes, just like I said, I have to read / listen to those instructions several times more than others to understand it.

10. Fidget and squirm in their seats : Yes, and this is kinda annoying, especially when I'm doing my school tasks (especially exams), I'd stop writing and fiddle with my fingers for a while and I'd lose some time. Sometimes my work isn't finished when its time to collect my work.

11. Talk nonstop : It depends on the person. Usually If I'm alone I'd talk to myself too.

12. Dash around, touching or playing with anything and everything in sight : I only do this if I'm bored.

13. Have trouble sitting still during dinner, school, doing homework, and story time : Sometimes, but not on dinner tho :3

14. Be constantly in motion : No if I'm really tired.

15. Have difficulty doing quiet tasks or activities: It depends on the task I'm doing.

16. Be very impatient : Sometimes, not really often tho.

17. Blurt out inappropriate comments, show their emotions without restraint, and act without regard for consequences : Sometimes I do say bad things without thinking :'(

18. Have difficulty waiting for things they want or waiting their turns in games : Yeah, but other people do this too, right?

19. Often interrupts conversations or others' activities : Not really, unless its important.

I also took an ADHD test in this site, and the results are:
I scored a total of 42. Innatention subscale : 24. Hyperactivity and impulsivity score : 18. (puu.sh/5sNah.png)
I told my parents about this. My dad did a little research about ADHD on the internet and he said that I don't have ADHD. He said that one of the symptoms is easily getting mad, but I don't get mad that often. Actually most of my friends told me that I'm one of the most patient friend they have. I told my dad that ADHD might be the thing behind my lack of concentration, and he said that I might not have tried harder. That makes me think that I moght not have ADHD, but I'm just lazy. So, please help me on this. I'm new here so I know like almost nothing about this. Thanks for reading this
