Unclear: It is unclear what you mean. From a written list of criteria or features, it is not possible to diagnose ADHD. For someone to be diagnosed with ADHD would require at least a face to face meeting, and possibly some additional tests.

ADHD SYMPTOMS: The diagnosis of ADHD only exists as a description of your experience, problems focusing on uninteresting subjects and restless feelings. The real diagnosis may be PTSD that actually correlates with a stress hormone imbalance. Mild to moderate insufficient amounts of cortisol and your brain’s attempt to compensate with surges of adrenaline are probable causes of your ADHD.

ADHD: I am unclear your question, but ADHD is a complicated set of questionnaires and tests to confirm- many doctors just give medicine to see if the symptoms "go away" but it is much better to be properly tested- in adults it can also be anxiety
