How to convince my parents to take me to get a diagnosis for adhd?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ADHD: I'm not sure how old you are but i believe in being straight forward and honest. So sit your parents down and tell them why you think you have adhd, how it is affecting your grades, and what difference the diagnosis would make for you. Do your research and let them know what adhd is and how taking medication can change things for you and help you become more successful.
