I would have never considered myself as having ADD on account of my grades in school, but after taking a test on a lot of other factors (including school work) it said I have a HIGH chance of having ADD.

I mean school has always came easy to me, but that doesn't mean I wasn't easily distracted.  I'm always distracted, jittery, anxious, always thinking about so many things, mood swings, short term memory problems, motivational problems.. I dunno the list goes on.  But I think I might actually go to get this checked out because i'm so sick of feeling overwhelmed and not being able to concentrate when I really have to.  

I mean it's to a point where if I hear music from my sisters computer through the floor in the bedroom there is NO WAY I can continue reading.  It's way to distracting.

I dunno, I just always thought I was the complete opposite of ADD, but that was only based on my success in school.  But after this test i've realized many things about my personality that point towards ADD.  

Should I consult my doctor about this?  He already knows I smoke so he'll probably assume i'm trying to get Adderall, but I've taken my sisters regular dose before and it REALLY helped me at school.  I was more focused, attentative, and it made me want to be social (typically I avoid social confrontation).  It just all around HELPED.  So I hope he doesn't make assumptions. Although I probably shouldn't tell him about taking my sisters meds cause then he'll definitely think i'm some punk ass teen trying to get drugs.
