Do I have adult add?

I get bored really easily. my mind is always racing, it is really hard to focus on just 1 thought. I have to read the same page of a book 2 or 3 times because my mind always drifts off. always tired mentally and physically. always forgetting things when i leave the house. always try to do multiple tasks at the same time, then end up not finishing any of them. if someone is talking to me I can only pay attention for about a minute or two then my mind drifts off. if this is add then how do i get help?

Possibly.

Those symptoms are not just ADD symptoms. I went to my Doc and basically said the same thing. He told me I likely had ADD or a sleep disorder.

I went through 7 hours of ADD testing and 2 nights in a sleep lab. Turns out I have sleep apnea.

See your doctor, and tell him your symptoms. He should send you to specialists and they'll figure it out.
Sounds more like you eat too much sugar and caffeine- you're wired.
It isn't ADD or ADHD, these are just labels used to sell drugs. If you want to unbalance the brain's delicate chemical relationships, then you're just going to have to come back to this problem again.

There are teachings and teachers who specialize in stopping this kind of thought - addiction.
