@betterhealthtoday

i seriously have alot of those symptoms, should i ask my doctor to test me for it?

[betterhealthtoday]

@hbolle00 That depends on your goal. Is your goal to get an official diagnosis? Then yes you should. Is your goal to get put on medication? Then yes. Is your goal to naturally reduce the symptoms so they don't limit you? Talking to a doctor wont help you with this goal. They don't really understand what is going on with ADHD and can only recommend medication. So you have to decide what you would like to accomplish.

@betterhealthtoday

cheers, i dont know if its possible to have a mix of both ADHD and ADD?

[betterhealthtoday]

@hbolle00 ADD is a term that was dropped a long time ago by the DSM. So really, there is no such thing even though people still use it. There are 3 types of ADHD. You can get the full details at the website listed in the video.

my wife has like 80% of what you said. not the hyperactivity how to diagnose her!!

and get perfect result, because she is stuborn and does not accept anything, and argue on all things, get angry and frowns 24 hours, very boring to be with like that type. what should I do??

[betterhealthtoday]

@Wisdombluetooth A lot of symptoms can be related to vitamin and mineral deficiencies & poor diet with processed foods and to much sugar. If you can help both of those, you could have a new person. That all depends on what the specific causes are for her. There are to many variations.
