I have this key question am I ADHD or not based on what I tell you. and if so do I have ADHD both hyperactive and inattentive or ADHD inattentive only or hyperactive only
here’s my story:
- As a toddler, I was very aggressive
kid:
- By the time I was a kid, I wasn’t very aggressive, but I got angry at small things (till today I am) I have been in trouble multiple times for taking play situations out of hand not because of aggressiveness just getting carried away which cause me to break chairs, windows, throwing toy cars of roofs, sending my brothers expensive Mercedes model cars into the walls.
- I had a big mouth by then was very provocative got into numerous fights with my siblings.
- I couldn’t tie my shoelaces until age 11
- I couldn’t ride a bike until 12
- I ran up and down the stairs a lot causing irritation to my siblings, but I could hold myself back when my parents came home
- Always jumping up and down on my parent’s bed, regardless of whether they were home or not
- Always behind in studies, the only person in the class to have failed most multiplication tables tests, couldn’t put ABCs in order until 13, got my parents called because of cheating on a test, and multiple times not handing in projects or whenever I did they were rubbish
- Needing almost 4 hours of extra tutoring a week
- Got into fights due to excessive provocation of people at school
Teenager:
I’m 15 now and this has been my life since I was 13:
- Suspended for 2 days due to verbally abusing a classmate in front of the whole class
- Got into trouble numerous times because of the provocation of colleagues again
- Never could concentrate ( also happened in childhood)
- Every time friends would come over to my house I would have arguments, and I would also play games they didn’t like, e.g. asking them to fight me by kicking them
- My teachers constantly complain about me fidgeting with any objects that are close to me.
- Having PE and finding that I am still full of energy, enough to go to the school gym right after, come home, and not sleep till 3 AM
- At night when my parents tell me to go to bed I roam around my small room randomly without any purpose at all.
- Besides being moderately hyperactive most times I have frequent intense outbursts of short hyperactive episodes where I go wild jumping on sofas, and kicking any object everywhere. the most recent episode was today when I literally went buzurks and I had only slept 3 hours but still, I had the energy to go completely bananas, and the episode lasted for about 30 minutes and I’m not totally calmed down yet my legs and hands like always are still restless
so this is my story and I’m 15 now by the way. and this is my second post, my first post only got 1 answer so I’m giving it another go on people’s opinions. and I will be most happy if I don’t have it because it will give me the determination to correct these problems, do you think I have ADHD or is it just a personality quirk?
reply to v-benjamins comment: hiya vbenjamin thanks a lot for your reply and wishes for me, but I didn’t go through any trauma at all earlier in life just so u are informed.
