and the site above has several other really good materials on adult adhd/add.
But back to the doctor issue for a bit. I would try and find a doctor that advertises treating adhd. A psychologist or psychiatrist would be my first choice.
And YES, go for it. I have seen adults get life changing answers.

I read a few things that having poop accidents could be a part of the adhd, can someone advise if this is true and what to do to stop it, I have tried everything except spanking... please help I am at my wits end...
t know if he has ADHD. I have had very bright kids in class who were not Diagnosed with ADHD till 5th. grade because they were able to handle a lot of the work and were not the typical "run around the classroom" type. I do know that very bright kids can have ADHD. I do know that they are easily distracted and don't finish their work on time. I have always felt that a good sign of ADHD was frustration. The child knows that they should be able to do the work.
MY SIX YEAR OLD IS WETTING HIS PANTS CONSTANTLY AND HAS MORE RESENTLY POOPED ON HIMSELF AT SCHOOL AND COUPLE OF TIMES!!! I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY!! HE TAKES MEDICAIN FOR ADHD COULD THAT AFFECT HIM? IF ANYONE HAS ANY INFORMATION PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!
Since it is across the board, I would not assume he is lazy. Perhaps there is more going on that you haven't uncovered yet. How are his social interactions with peers and other adults? What does his school say? Has a learning disorder been ruled out? ADD is common but most people don't think of it for a calm child--- as ADHD gets most of the attention. ADD children blend in but can have problems such as you describe. ARe his motor skills on point?
If anything is slowing him down it is his mild form of ADHD. To get rid of the label (if he has ADHD), means that when he starts having trouble as the academia becomes more difficult - then he is just lazy. So what do you want a lazy kid who gives up, or a child with a known handicap who can be helped?
Schools do not just give every kid on the block a one to one aide. It is very expensive. If they did not think there was a reason to do so, they would not have done so.
We have been teaching him for a year to tie his own shoes, and still he struggles with it. He can be very lazy as well. If he doesn't feel like lacing his shoes then he just pulls them on. When he does tie his shoes he asks several times for someone to help him and he just does not want to do it.
Things like brushing his teeth and washing his hands and brushing his hair in the morning before he goes to school is another battle. We often have to remind him of these things everyday.
Hawthorn, Conners, and abbreviated ADHD scale. With this they were able to diagnose ADHD. I had asked for a more thorough test like WISC III however, since he didn't show a learning disability... his psychiatrist had told me this would be out of pocket.
He has been on meds for a little over a month and he has said he can complete the projects, reading and math with much more focus and ease (he's in all advance classes).
I'm not suggesting that you get meds.
My parents told me I was tested when I was in the first or second grade, but were informed I DID NOT have ADD/ADHD. I was an average, and lazy, student all the way through college--the classic underachiever. Now that I'm properly dianosed and medicated, my life has taken a noticeable change for the better; I'm organized, on-time, and more effecient when it comes to handling life's daily duties.

t believe the body should be building up a tolerance to the ADD/ADHD meds that quickly. ADD/ADHD meds are amphetamines so there is a high risk for addiction and with that addiction comes a stronger tolerance to lower doses--similar to how a person who is an alcoholic would be able to drink so much more than your average person. But that tolerance should take a long time to build in your body--as in, years.
My son is 11yrs old and has ADHD but I believe is more then ADHD. Its also his behavior at home. He doesn't want to do homework and is lazy to write anything on paper. Has a difficult understanding when he reads. He gets really upset when he cannot get anything done he answers back with disrespect and screams. Tells me to be quite. I have rules in the house but is not working. How can I discipline my child?. .
And actually while virtually all the study techniques for people with ADHD will also help those without ADHD, medication also figures in. So it is also important to know (if you do have ADHD) if you are on medication. And if you are - when do you take it and what kind?
So, if you don't mind, let me know if you have ADHD and if so the types of meds being used or not used.
I think your first resort should be finding out if he has any learning disabilities. I have seen kids with ADD hit the wall at about 4th grade and start giving up. The grades start to go and then because they are being judged a failure everyday, their self concept and thus their attitude starts to self destruct.
If he does have something like ADD, bribery won't work because even if he is trying hard to succeed - he won't be able to without the proper help.
