Possible adhd

2018-05-21 21:28:31
I have issues focusing on things, even if I enjoy doing them. Somethings I can do for hours straight. I can't remember things such as chores, homework, where I put things, schedules, etc. I was told I might have adhd but I'd like a second opinion before I see a doctor or psychologist

You need second opinion for starting medicine but not for the evaluation of the symptoms which you are facing. So it's better to visit a nearby psychologist without delay and then after ward you can give a second thought to treatment plan.

ADHD symptoms can be divided into three broad headings- hyperactivity, in attention and impulsivity. You have mentioned some symptoms of inattention. You need a detail assessment for which you should visit a psychiatrist.
