Hi,
I am a 15 year old girl. I am concerned I may have ADD, however I am not sure if I am just being paranoid. For the past few years, I have struggled paying attention in school. Often, I find myself daydreaming and missing what the teacher said, even if I wanted to hear it. Despite this, I am in advanced classes and maintain fairly good grades. I also am notorious for procrastinating. No matter how important an assignment is, I can't get started until the day before it is due. The same goes for studying. It takes me a very long time to do even simple homework assignments because I usually get distracted and go on my phone or start daydreaming. I don't have any symptoms of hyperactivity or impulsiveness. I am not sure if it is worth confronting my parents because I would hate to come across as being a hypochondriac. I was hoping I could get a second opinion from others. Thanks!
