How do you know if you yourself do not have it?
I've known some kids who have "ADD", they could concentrate when they wanted to, but if it was school or something along those lines, they convieniently let their minds slip.
They have meds for it because they found a reason for parents to shell out hundreds of dollars on a medication that is basically just like weed. It mellows you out for a little bit.
Doctor's don't always know everything, they were told by someone what ADD looks like, and then they see a kid who acts hyper they automatically assume it's ADD. It's called the kid has a personality, he doesn't have ADD.

My friend can't concentrate at like anything at all..... maybe that's ADD or maybe its not... I dunno.... I'm not a medical expert...
You really shouldn't take meds for ADD unless necessary, firstly not everyone goes through the same thing, and instead of using a western approach to this "disorder" if you will, you should try meditating instead, this will call you down and focus your mind and body.
Secondly, most people with the real disorder, experience symptoms before age 7 😕
And medication will only block the imbalance, it could cause heavier problems, you're supposed to see a doctor as well like a psychiatrist or something.
