See a professional: Get a full evaluation from a psychologist who can provide psychological testing. Prior to any medication trial make sure the diagnosis is accurate, ruling out depression and anxiety, then consider stimulant meds and ADHD coaching.

Honest conversation: Having an open and honest conversation about your concerns regarding your mental health is important. Asking for your parents support to seek professional advice in order to make an informed decision about starting treatment is a great first step.
