Id there a way to get tested for adhd without my parents knowing?

Many things in life r distracting. Not all of them r adhd. Anxiety, depression, family problems, trying to do more than is humanly possible, all can cause loss of focus. We are told we shd be able to "multitask, " but we can't. The term comes from computers, ; they can't without more than 1 processor. We only get 1 processor. Get an evaluation w/ a therapist who is not already convinced it's adhd.

I don’t know of a way to get tested without your parents knowing as they would likely have to pay for any testing. However, your regular doctor can help you if you let your doc know your concerns. He/she can then help you deal with your concerns. If you need testing or treatment , your doctor can help talk with your parents about it. Good luck!
