i'm sorry to hear you feel your health needs are being neglected. self-diagnosis is a dicey deal. you can read all you want about adhd on the internet but you still may not have it. only a trained medical professional can give you a diagnosis because he or she will take into account your entire medical history and other factors. i don't say that to dismiss your concerns and i'm sorry if it comes across that way. this type of forum isn't useful for expressing tone of voice. you deserve to have your medical needs met. if you have talked to your mother and requested a doctor visit to be evaluated for adhd and she is not willing to do so i'd suggest you make an appointment with your school counselor or nurse to discuss your concerns. either of these individuals should be willing to work with you to help you sort out how to deal with this problem. i wish you all the best!
what can i do if i am positive i have adhd and my mom wont take me to the doctor?
