I understand your concern. The way to find out if you have adhd or not is to undergo a complete and detailed evaluation with a psychiatrist. It is easily manageable with appropriate medications and some therapy so that dysfunction due to adhd can be reduced and your quality of life will improve. I would also be more than happy to help you with that if you are looking for online assistance. You can directly consult with me through Practo as needed. Online chat consultation is available.
