I'm pretty sure ADHD/ADD exists, but they are diagnosing the wrong people. The bullies and the noisy kids who are victims of a bad home is often given the diagnosis.Quote:

That being said, I scored 59, but I'm sure that has more to do with my rather bizarre personality and severe addiction to Coca-Cola, than with having a disorder.
I actually do have ADHD :P and thats a fact...I was being considerate on the test and scored;
You scored a total of 77
(I was told as a child that I have problems with concentrating , I find it hard to focus on a single task for extended periods of time and i usually cannot keep still lol).
Uhuh, but you'll find any test that you take online (ones which aren't official) such as this test or an IQ test are exaggerated and inaccurate.Quote:

Does Riddelin and Aderal (ADHD medication) actually work? Did you score a 77 while still taking the drugs or is that 77 only when your not taking the medication? Do you find yourself better off with or without the meds?
In the U.S. kids are perscribed ADHD like candy. Rates of children on ADHD medication in Europe is less than half of what it is here in the States.
I didn't think this post would be so popular, but I guess ADHD is a touchy subject.
You scored a total of 21
