I have all the symptoms of ADHD. And I have had them since I was 5 or 6. I am 12 now. My mom won't take me to get tested because I'm not causing big problems. But I just really want to find out. How should I go about asking my mom to let me get tested?

Just because you have the symptoms or some of the symptoms does not necessarily mean that you have ADHD. If your not causing big problems and there is no real issue here. You need to stop focusing on symptoms and just focus on doing your best in school, and with family.

Ok - tell me what ADHD symptoms you have, especially the ones that concern you. You might have something else instead.

Or might not have anything at all. Just normal things that some people like to give a name or label.
