I'm sorry you are dealing with this. Though I am not diagnosed with AD/HD, I believe that it really depends on what your pdoc or whoever says. When reading what you said, it sounded more like ASD, but I'm no expert. Many people with ASD have to pace, rock back and forth, or some movement to help them concentrate. They also have difficulty with relationships.

Those two conditions are quite similar, and an expert's opinion would be the best thing. Question though: have you experienced hyperactivity, impassivity, and/or inattentiveness as a child? Under 12 years of age? If not, you will not be considered to have ADHD.

Sorry, I wrote this really badly. Hope this helps .
