dude, I saw a tv show about ADD and after that I was 100% positive I had it. At first when I saw the psychiatrist he scoffed at me and thought I was trying to scam him for the meds. You can always have the psychological tests done if you pay for them. All this info is available to research on the internet. Anyways he had me do this little 60 second test and told me I didn’t have it, blah, blah, blah. So I kept seeing him and after a few visits he comes out and tells ME that I have ADD and he wants me to start medication for it !!!!! Quite a switch. Dr’s cannot tell from a 30 minute test if you have it in my opinion. You have to fight for it bro’, amass data, evidence, examples, test results, just keep at it man. That’s what I was prepared to do, I was not going to go untreated by our medical system here, I pay taxes and I have A RIGHT to equal medical care. Get the psychological test results and go back and confront the Dr. with the evidence, If you have it as you say you do then justice will prevail and you will be successful, over and out
