Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello! Welcome to health care magic!
From the above mentioned symptoms, l can think of mood disorder as ADHD is not so common at his age.

So, there is a possibility of similar symptoms in mood disorder or bipolar disorder.

So I would like to know any kind of disinhibitory behaviour, overtalkativeness, decreased need of sleep.

Hope this information is helpful.
Thank you

Regards, Dr.soujanya, psychiatrist.
