I think I have adhd but I’m not sure. When I was little , like around 3 or 4 I would get up and run around in circles for hours with toys in my hands. I did that because it made my imagination more.. bigger. I left reality and everything I saw was in my head. I would sometimes accidentally run into cabinets or walls, not paying attention to my surroundings. That lasts for years, until I was around 14. Now I kinda still do it, but not with toys. I walk around for hours everyday listening to music, creating scenes in my head that goes along with the music as I walk around, escaping reality. When I’m in the car, sitting in class, whenever I listen to music it happens. Also since kindergarten I’ve always sucked in school. I’ve always been put in special classes with kids that need extra help, and now I go to a school for kids that struggles to graduate. I’m suppose to graduate this year but instead I’m still considered a sophomore🤦🏽♀️ when I’m sitting in class, it’s impossible to focus. My mind leaves reality and I start daydreaming uncontrollably, I could’ve reattach myself to the real world even if I tried, everything is always in my mind. I forget everything and I make the dummest mistakes. Literally yesterday I put a box of frozen hash brown on top of the fridge, it took a few minutes before I realized that’s not where it goes. I’m also very fidgety. My legs are always shaking or my hands are tapping the table, I can’t just be still. I hate standing for large amounts of time, I get uncomfortable, like I absolutely HAVE to do some type of movement. A lot of things make me uncomfortable. I hate being looked at, I hate people talking to me, thinking of myself makes me uncomfortable. I know that sounds weird! Not in a insecure way I honestly think I’m very pretty! But when I think of myself I get uncomfortable. Idk what’s wrong with me, it’s like my whole life is a virtual reality, I’m waking around in the real world but seeing something else in my mind.
