hi there,

i'm not sure if i'm at the right place here, because i'm not sure exactly what or if i have any type of mental problems yet. i was actually thinking about seeking a professional and had some questions

anyway, i think i may have adhd or add, but may have a number of other issues as well... i'm not really sure. i'm 22 almost 23 and have never really been to a doctor about this type of stuff. i can't think clearly most of the time and have a hard time concentrating. sometimes i have to read a line a book 3 or 4 times before i'm even actually reading it. i feel very lazy and unmotivated mentally and can't stick with something i'm working on very long at all. i'm also terribly in-confident and... although it makes me laugh to say this feel like i'm pretty introverted. i have a hard time talking with people i don't know with out it being completely awkward, maybe that's just a personal problem though. what else... another thing i've noticed recently is that i'm always in a rush to do things, even if it's something really minor or insignificant, like i'm always tense. i was reading about BPD and feel like i have symptoms of that as well. there's so much more, but this is kind of depressing. could this all be summed up as one or two problems? maybe adhd. i'm really not sure. what type of professional would i have i need to seek? and finally i'm concerned about the cost. i'm pretty poor lately and can't afford much, but after a full day of my brain feeling rotten i feel like this is a pretty important issue.

sorry for the long and possibly depressing post. i've been needing to get that out for a while. any help would be appreciated
