How to diagnose ADHD

I have always had difficulty with attention. Few years back I did loads of research and made a self diagnosis that I have ADHD. Can I take any test that will prove it. And what is the cure. Regards, Gifta

Stress and feeling of impending doom

I am under a lot of stress these days. I know many many people are but I just feel extremely vulnerable and sensitive. Feel numbness in my left leg (calf area) sometimes, though no pain. I also get this periodic back head pain for which doctor treated me with anxiety medicines last year but they have returned. Not taking any medicine now. I also get gastrointestinal problems too easily these days. In short, just feel unwell both physically as well as mentally and all the time my mind keeps racing to as if I might have some serious disease and like I am gonna die soon. I try to keep myself active, also engage in multiple things and have even started studying for an exam but my studies, job, life all are getting impacted due to these thoughts. What should I do?

I'm very much worried of ophidiophobia

Hi doctor, since childhood I have been suffering from fear of snakes. I know everyone is afraid of snakes. But in my case, even a mere picture with a snake image gives me a deadly fear that breaks my mood all the day. As l live in a village, I am not able to go outside during day and night time fearing what if a snake emerges out of some bushes. I avoid sitting under any tree fearing if a snake might fall on me. I am very much cautious if happen to walk during night time. Sometime, I run madly from one end to another to reach my home. One incident happened in my life. When l was 8 or 9, l encountered a huge snake passing very close to my legs. I ran away crying. That time l felt my eyes were blacked out. I felt a chilling experience. Still now the fear is not yet gone. Please help me how to get rid of this fear.

Insomnia. Light sleeping at night.

I am struggling to fall asleep for a few months now. Especially at night. Currently I work in night shift so it works out for me but even during my day shift timing I find it very hard to fall asleep. I work out regularly or even if I am tired from other work I don't feel sleepy. If I happen to sleep after an hour or two I wake up again and it takes me another hour to fall back to sleep. So I end up being in and out of my sleep for more than 8hours. I have been taking otc melatonin supplement for two weeks now. Still it has not properly worked for me.
