I am being tested for adult ADD next week. What should I expect? Did you take it? How is the test scored?

Tisk, Tisk, Tisk! This is not the kind of test one preps for. Testing is accurate only if the person comes into the test cold - without any prior knowledge or preparation. To have information before the test will mess up the results.

Hi
You will just go to your appointment which is just like a reg doc's appointment. You both sit and really just talk, you won't be so nervous after about the first 5 minutes or so, then at the end of the conversation the doc has all the information to tell you what is wrong.
There is no paper and pencil test. There is no right or wrong answer. There is nothing to increase your anxiety over. So take a deep breath, relax, chill, and just be your self. No looking for right answers be cause to be honest, there are no right or wrong answers. To help ease your anxiety, check this web site:

It may clear up some uncertainties that you are having.
Be safe and be well

it isn't scored. the doc will ask q's abut how you feel or react in different situations. he'll take many things into consideration such as age,yours and your families history. the diagnosis is based on a set of criteria found in the books. dsvm-i think. don't worry and be totally honest. that's the only way you'll get the right help.

what's that on the window? what's that trojan horse on the floor? have you ever offered sparkling sox on? Did you sparkling the sink? Did you flush two times? Are you going domicile or to college or to the keep, maybe to a acquaintances domicile? Did you write your grandmother and thank her for the birthday cutting-edge?

I didn't get tested, its so bleeding obvious.
hate the meds, make me cranky, and enable incredible lists to be created and very little accomplished.
