Welcome to the TotallyADD.com unofficial ADHD test for adults. (DO NOT KEEP SCORE)
During this test you will be asked to keep your own score giving yourself one point for each yes. Does that sound like far too much work? give yourself one point. The more points you have the more likely it is that you have ADHD. Obviously this is not intended as a proper medical diagnosis (THE POINTS DON’T MATTER) it is designed for adults who
may have wondered, but are not really sure, what ADHD is and of course for those of us who already know we have ADHD and just like seeing all the different ways that it messes with us.
If you missed what I just said and so you plan to give yourself a point for every question because you think there’s a
prize for the highest score (POINTS DON’T MATTER) give yourself a point.
If you’re going to give yourself zero points just because “you’re not the boss of me!” you might want to take a test for oppositional defiant disorder.
You can track your score with a pen and paper. If you instantly decided “that’s too much bother I’ll just remember” give yourself one point.
Are you thinking I’m taking too long? give yourself one point.
Give yourself a point for each time you lose track of what I’m saying, and bonus points for actually going off and doing something else altogether and then coming back a week later and finding this quiz is still there on your screen.
One of the symptoms of ADHD is interrupting, if you tend to interrupt people give yourself a point.
If you don’t interrupt people but get very enthused about things you’re thinking of and you just have to tell everyone and you blurt it out if you don’t blurt it out now you’re just going to forget it that’s interrupting. Give yourself two
points, one for interrupting and one for poor self-assessment.
Many ADHD adults are not good at self-assessment. If you think you are really good at self-assessment
give yourself two points because the people who rate themselves highly for self-assessment are actually the worst at self-assessment which is why they assess their self-assessment skills so high.
How many jobs have you had in the past three years? One point for each new job or contract up to a maximum of 48 points.
If you cut all the tags off your clothes because they drive you nuts give yourself a point. When you find socks or underwear that don’t bug you do you buy a 10-year supply? Two points, because ADHD can also be about sensory and emotional regulation.
When I said emotional regulation did you “What? oh my god what?! What?!” give yourself a point and a chill pill.
If you’ve ever been worth several million dollars and now live with your mom give yourself two points. Have you ever thought about robbing your bank rather than waiting three minutes for the old lady who’s ahead of you at the ATM? Give yourself a point.
If you actually started going “ahem ahem” to the old lady give yourself a bonus point.
If you can do a week’s worth of food shopping in seven minutes give yourself a point.
If it’s all unhealthy stuff because you forgot your shopping list for that new healthy diet you were just going to start give yourself one more.
If you shop in the middle of the night because there’s no lineup and it’ll save you three minutes give yourself a point.
If you pace while you’re on the phone give yourself a point.
If you get up and pace during meetings give yourself another point. If you walked and paced during a wedding give yourself a point. If it was your wedding two points.
