I'm 15, and I have a lot of Interest, and I basically have a different interests week. Its not that I lose interests in other things all together, I just kind of put them in the back of mind. and its like extreme interests. Such things include

Wanting to get a private pilots/airplanes, Electric cars, Astronomy (Which is an all the time interest), Guns/bows/Air Rifles, Meteorology, Becoming a Youtuber (All the time interest), Engineering, Race cars, My racing mower, My Bug. Things like that (I could go on and on, But I would bore ya'll with length)

and its like my mind will always switch between which one I'm interested in at the time. and they always remain an interests, Buts it like I lose focus in them. They're almost more like dreams and wants than interests I guess and I love thinking about them, and studying them. Is this Normal?

ADHD is diagnosed 2 to 4 times more frequently in boys than girls and is diagnosed in 2-16% of school aged kids and 4.7% of American adults - perhaps that is the problem.



ADHD-inattentive is marked by inattention, easily distracted, forget things and frequently switch from one activity to another, become bored with a task after only a few minutes unless doing something enjoyable, difficulty focusing or organizing and completing a task, often losing things, i.e., pencils, toys, assignments, daydream, become easily confused, struggle to follow instructions etc.



You could also just be a normal teen trying to figure out what you like to do and taking advantage of many different hobbies and opportunities.

Yes this is normal, the only reason this is not to commonly brought up is because it is difficult for people to pursue so many interests at once and also when you get older or the pressure builds in school or at home people tend to scale back to worrying about things that are relevant at the moment and try to only focus on a few interests they can fit into their lifestyle. Especially in the summer you have more time and mental energy to give to recreational things like this. You are still young and as your life changes so may some of your interests or you may hone in on a few more than others. Though, if you are like me you may gain even more interests as you get older. But its nothing to worry about it just means that you like to dream big. :)

I might attempt to discover a brand new healthcare professional. I do not believe I might provide a healthcare professional a moment risk particularly if she tousled the primary one so badly. She must have your whole expertise already and she or he must have no less than reviewed it by way of now. Think approximately should you must name her both with a query approximately your being pregnant or after the child is born. Will she support you or is she going to disregard it as not anything? You're no longer being dramatic in any respect.

That's just part of Puberty, almost everybody goes through phases like that. I remember loving anime for about a month, deciding that I hated it, moving on to Call of Duty, hating that, and then loving certain bands (which I all hate now lol).
