I've been thinking I might have exactly this for a few years now and it probably does have a negative affect. How would I look into testing?

I would say talk to your physician and s/he may be able to do the test or refer you to a psychiatrist

What if you have no physician and can't afford therapy? I've been struggling with mental issues for years and still don't know what to do about it. I've been making slow progress for a while now but there's only so much I can do without help.

I can't really recommend anything outside that. Prescriptions cost money and when it comes to Adderall, you can only get a month supply at any time so it requires regular doctor visits
