ADHD Self-Check

1. How often do you make mistakes in school, work, or other activities? Think of typos, taking down the wrong homework, misunderstanding dates or times.

2. How often do you have difficulty sustaining attention in tasks, conversations, or reading?

3. How often do you find yourself not listening when spoken to directly?

4. How often do you struggle to follow through on instructions or finish tasks?

5. How often do you have difficulty organizing tasks and activities? Include the times you feel like you have too many things and you end up doing none of them.

6. How often do you avoid or dislike tasks that require sustained mental effort? Think of this from a life point of view, not something that you're actually interested in. Filing taxes, reading rules and regulations, going through a long email to find information.

7. How often do you lose things necessary for tasks (keys, glasses, papers, phone, etc.)?

8. How often are you easily distracted by noises or activity around you?

9. How often are you forgetful in daily activities (returning calls, paying bills, keeping appointments)?
