Hey, What you describe sounds just like me. I am 15 and I can say the same things. I have no focus, I love to read but lately it has become really hard. I constantly forget things and I have a hard time paying attention even when people are talking directly to me. The only difference is, for as long as I can remember, I have hid these things from my parents. That makes it a lot harder to convince them that I have ADD since they don’t see the symptoms that I have. Some of my teachers have noticed and brought it up to me but like you, I am an introvert and I let them think that it was no big deal. I am going to be a sophomore and take several AP classes. This is going to make my life a lot harder since everything takes me so much longer to do and I will have a lot more homework. If you have anything that you have done that helped could you let me know? I’m sorry that I can’t say that is more helpful to you. [email removed by mod]
