Dear TeenHealthFX,

Dear I Think I Have ADD,
You must feel very alone, but there is help out there. TeenHealthFX wonders why you feel you may have ADD. Do you feel like you are not doing well in school? Are you having trouble concentrating? Or, did someone mention this to you? Whatever your answers are, TeenHealthFX thinks you need to talk to someone about your feelings and the possibility of ADD.
Check out TeenHealthFX's response to Do I Have ADD?. This is a very similar question to yours and may help you to understand ADD a little more. Then, speak to your parents, doctor, teacher or guidance counselor about how you are feeling. Continue speaking to adults until you get the help you need.
