do i have add | ADHD Information

Such a small amount of sleep and high stress can also cause some of the symptoms that you have listed.

It sounds to me that you need to make yourself (your health) your first priority. By making your health your priority, you can be a better husband, a better dad, and a better worker. You can also be happier with your life and with who you are.

Hang in there and take care of yourself!

I know I need to go seek professional help on this question but I reall dont have time.

I am a 30 year old male with a great job, great wife a great 1 year old little boy.

History

I failed 2 nd grade and 4th grade and struggled all the way through high school.  I used to get in lots of trouble until the last time I went to jail it changed my life around.  I have been clean of drugs and trouble for about 10 years now.( I liked pot a lot).  The deal is that it is getting harder to hide who I really am.  It seems like I have double personalities. This is the problem  I CANT DEAL WITH LOTS OF STRESS.  I m in the process of building a house and a major job promotion.  It now seems that I can not even do the simple things in life.  Even though before it has always been harder for me to do simple things its now really getting harder with all the added stress.  

This past year I have caught shingles twice. due to work.  It always seems that I have to work late just to get my job done right.  The bad part is that if I would just go home and finish in the morning It would only take me 1 hour instead of 5 hours to do the same exact work.

If i wouldnt have a good wife my life would be a wreck she keeps track of everything.  She just tell me to pick up all of my stuff.

People who know me really well think that I have add because I could be myself. but people who hardly know me think that Im a really laid back person( I am totlaly the opposite),

add syptoms ( I think)

never sleep

piles of crap everywhere

I race dirtbike, motocycle.bmx bike and skate boards

I cant stay in one place for long

don listed

always try to saticfy everyone but myself

always bite my nails wiggle my feet an knees  ALWAYS

Still think Im 15 years old

Always got to be doings something

takes me all day to do 10 minuts worth of work( I make more of a mess when I try to do house work

The list can go on.

 

I have been trying to be the person everyone wants me to be but now with the added stress my old way are coming back. Im have a very short fuse, i tend to say thing i regret saying, gettin about 15 hours of sleep a week.

I can go on on and but just cant seem to get the right words on the computer screen I really know I need to seek professional help but I just dont have the time.

 

I am not a doc or a shrink.  But the things you list could be related to adhd and the fact that you might have had the adhd symptoms since childhood sound familiar. 

It is good to get a correct diagnosis so you know for sure and can rule out other things like anxeity, stress alone, etc............ 

Also a correct diagnosis is needed if you ever decide it is an issue that is interfering with your life in a negative way. 

Good luck!!!!!!
