🤍 ADHD Test (warning signs)

Answer calmly. Think about how you felt in the last two weeks. There are no right or wrong answers.

1. Do you find it hard to stay focused on tasks or activities, even those you enjoy?

📌 Example: you start something and a few minutes later your mind is elsewhere. Reading a book or watching a movie becomes a constant struggle.

1 - Almost never 2 - A few days 3 - More than half the days 4 - Nearly every day

2. Do you often forget appointments, commitments, or things you had to do?

📌 Example: you miss meetings, turn things in late, or lose important items (keys, phone, wallet).

1 - Almost never 2 - A few days 3 - More than half the days 4 - Nearly every day

3. Do you struggle to organize tasks or activities (getting started, following a sequence)?

📌 Example: you know what you have to do, but you don’t know where to begin. You end up doing everything at the last minute or not at all.

1 - Almost never 2 - A few days 3 - More than half the days 4 - Nearly every day

4. Do you avoid or put off tasks that require sustained mental effort (studying, reports, paperwork)?

📌 Example: you leave important things for later because just thinking about them overwhelms you.

1 - Almost never 2 - A few days 3 - More than half the days 4 - Nearly every day

5. Do you have trouble staying seated when you’re supposed to (meetings, meals, classes)?

📌 Example: you can’t sit still, you fidget, you get up constantly, or you feel like you’re suffocating if forced to stay seated.

1 - Almost never 2 - A few days 3 - More than half the days 4 - Nearly every day

6. Do you act without thinking or find it hard to control impulses (interrupting, buying things, rash decisions)?

📌 Example: you speak before your turn, buy things you don’t need, or jump into conversations and situations without considering the consequences.

1 - Almost never 2 - A few days 3 - More than half the days 4 - Nearly every day
