[quote=Anonymous]Does this sound like Inattentive ADHD to you?

My dd is 14 and has always struggled with procrastination and not reading questions fully as well as rushing on tests.

We always assumed this was normal and she was just being sloppy but now we are looking at other things and realize many of these could be symptoms of inattentive adhd.

She often spaces out especially in class and not out of boredom but just because he mind starts to wander.
She has difficulty concentrating at times to the point where she needs to reread a sentence multiple times just for it to make sense and enter her brain. 
She reads very very fast and that often causes her to skim and she has difficulty explaining her thoughts out loud or writing them down. 
She also gets overwhelmed with work that she ends up not getting anywhere or getting anything done. She gets frustrated really easily and 0 patience but once she gets into a good book she will be completely immersed.

She is very bright and she got into a selective high school so we are worried about her and her academics. [/quote]
