Yeah, no. ADD isn't just a cause for energy or hyperactivity, and I honestly have no idea how it can go undetected for a decade, especially in the kid/teen years. And it WILL affect studies unless you religiously stay on the medication and that's not gonna be the case if it was 'undetected.' Not only that, but it does a lot more than 'annoy the parents.' You get put in special ed. classes and bullied for it.

Sorry, I just get really pissed off (as someone with ADHD) when people obviously don't fucking understand the disorder at all. It should go with any disorder or illness really - if this is your character anon, do your research because you/whoever wrote this painfully, obviously hasn't.

Everything else? Too perfect and too much. Besides the ADD thing, if handwriting and teeth are her only real problems, then that makes for a not very interesting character.

ADHD often goes undetected until adulthood in girls because girls tend to present differently than boys. Boys (tend to) act out; girls (tend to) internalize. The acting-out is a lot easier to point to; girls with ADHD/ADD often get misdiagnosed as having depression.
