I believe i have adhd or add but i have not been to a doctor to be prescribed medication for any of my symptoms.how would i get prescribed medication?

More than medication: First things first, you need to be diagnosed. A doctor will assess your symptoms including any issues you might be having with school and other settings such as difficulty paying attention, being overactive and acting without thinking. Medication is a part of ADHD treatment. Also behavioral therapy is a part of ADHD treatment.
