Don't self diagnose, ask a doctor for a referal if your concerned. There are things that have similar symptoms to ADHD but point to other causes. Its good to know what it is (especially as the treatments can be quite different). There are also comorbitities (Autism spectrum is not uncommon. OCD disorders less common but it happens too, although if you have OCD you'd know it [and no, I'm not talking about obsessive personality, OCD is a force of nature, the real disorder is extremely dehabilitating untreated])
