Okay, I honestly think that I might have ADHD. I have a hard time focusing when doing schoolwork, watching movies or even reading a book I enjoy. I've been taken to the doctor when I was younger but they came to the conclusion that I did not have ADHD. However, my grades have never been that great and although I sincerely try, I can't seem to just sit down and focus long enough to make any significant progress. I told my parents what I thought and they set me up a doctors appointment this afternoon but they think I am just going to try to get a drug to get high off of. This isn't entirely the case but I can't lie to Grasscity, I wouldn't mind getting a script for Adderall, lol. However, I am truly concerned about my inability to focus while doing schoolwork or concentrating in class. If my parents talk to the doctor and tell him how they feel before I can talk to him, he will probably see exactly the way they do and not even bother to take me seriously. So here is my dilemma: If the doctor dosen't take what I have to say seriously, what are some things I could claim that indeed would get him to take me seriously...?
I know this can be kinda broad but for the most part, I know that Adderall helps me and when I have taken it before, I felt no "upper" high, which would not be normal. For people who really do have ADHD, the medicine will not act as an upper and this is somewhat of a concern for me also...
Any comments/advice welcome.
Thanks Grasscity.
