Can lack of concentration be considered a symptom of ADD?
human
Would I be a candidate for a ADD test? Here are my observations of myself and how I correlate it to me having ADD. First of all I have a short attention span, especially in class. I will dose of into day dreaming or I will start to bite my nails. I noticed when a teacher is talking to me I will nod and will think to myself in the middle of them talking, "Wow, I did not pay attention to a word they said." I will start to spaz out if I am sitting in a seat for way too long. I have a need to ask to go to the restroom so I can get out of class to just walk and do something else. I feel like I am the best example of what procrastination is. I push off homework assignments to maybe 1 o clock in the morning. In class a teacher is lecturing with notes up the screen. I can only write down notes, but not pay attention at the same time. I don't know how to read a book to be honest. I read fairly well but just getting pages read that don't interest me won't happen. Please give me some feed back!

DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. I sincerely opine that the problem you are facing now is of your own creation.This cannot be ADD. you are getting yourself entirely wrong. You are not able to concentrate on your studies because you are day dreaming, That is wrong and the truth is you are day dreaming because you are unable to concentrte on your studies. I know that the subjects are boring. Those subjects are boring for every student. Only interest and caree oriented approach motivates them and they concentrate. First of all, you need to create interest. Interest comes from motivation and motivation comes from a possible aim. Cultivate and stick to aim and you will get motivation. Search google for  'effective study techniques'  and follow those techniques.If you still need my help, please describe the whole problem in detail and post a direct question to me. I shall definitely help you with psychotherapy techniques to over come your problems.Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.Good luck.
