Suggest Treatment For ADHD
Question: Hello
I have had some severe symptoms of ADHD for the past couple of years. My friends and family tell me that it has gotten progressively worse. I have noticed my grades drop in school because I am constantly destracted and I have a hard time making myself go to class because it is hell for me to sit through 3 hours fidgeting in class without being able to stand up and walk around for that long. Is it possible that I could get an online doctor to help me out with this and get the help I need online.

Since your symptoms are getting worse and this is affecting your learning process you need to see a healthcare specialist.
The fact that ADHD treatments (Adderall or Vyvanse ) improved your symptoms ,can indicate that most likely your symptoms are related to ADHD.
