Thank you for your question and welcome to ADHDCentral.com

 

There could be a medical condition for how you are feeling. The best thing to do is contact your doctor and discuss this with him or her.

 

Your doctor would be best able to determine if you require additional testing or medical care and if a medication would help you.
