As a general PSA:
ADHD is supposed to be a diagnosis of last resort that they give after eliminating all other possibilities. It's useful to know the root cause of whatever problems you may be having.
Some studies and some individuals report benefiting from certain nutritional supplements if you get a diagnosis and want to treat it without medication per se.

- DoreenMichele 4y agoMy oldest was checked for ADHD in kindergarten and the ruled out ADHD because he paid more attention to longer sentences. It would be some years before I would learn that he was basically suffering from "bored gifted kid syndrome (TM)" and not ADHD. He also has some health issues and can't pay attention when he's under the weather. There can be lots of reasons someone has trouble concentrating at times.
