how to get a prescription?

ok this is going to sound really stupid to most im sure. but how do i start to go about getting a prescription? call my dock right? yea well im COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY ignorant to doctors, hospitals, clinics, checkups and everything in between. last time i been to a doctor i was a toddler. i dont even know what a clinic is really for. my family never had any real connection to family doctors or medical or any thing of that nature. unless it was broke or we were dying we just patched it up at home. several severe fractures and bloody messes later our family is doing alright.
back to my point im looking to get a prescription due to the fact my excellent job performs on the spot hair and urin drug tests "when" not "if" you fuck up... oops = drug test. i have great insurance now and thinking bout getting a script for ADD and literally know nothing but knock on my local hospital and say "i want a prescription!"
i know its stupid but medical is something my family never experienced.
thx.

1) Visit a family doctor and tell him you have problems maintaining proper focus and attention
2) He will refer you to a psychiatrist
3) Visit the psychiatrist and answer some stupid questions
4) Chances are the psych will give you a script for some adderal or ritalin

Note that 'family doctor' denotes a general practitioner rather than your specific family's doctor. Any walk-in clinic or hospital will at least be able to point you toward a GP who's accepting new patients.

look up the effects of ADD and play the part. DO research! I was in a motorcycle accident and milked the "nerve pain" for months after. Dilaudid is a hell of a drug

ok pretend im a fucking alien and most of that was gibberish. if i knew nothing about medical where is the first most simple breakdown of what to do, who to call, where to go to getting a prescription assuming i have no regular dock or family dock or any knowledge of where to go to get my medical condition treated to get a prescription.

Like someone said, call the insurance company. They can point you to an "in network"doctor that won't cost you a much in some cases/insurance type.

Google doctors in your area. Call doctor. Person will answer the phone. Ask person if they take your insurance. If they do, make an apt for new patient. If they don't, repeat first steps until you find one.
Go in, tell them you haven't been to a doctor for your adult life and you're looking to establish a Dr for the future.

Its better to get a list of providers in your area from ur insurance. Then u find ones that are conveniently located. Then you read their reviews n ratings on a site like ratemydoctor.com or whatever they are called. Then you choose the one you think is best. Then u call them up and book an appointment

Yeah but if he doesn't want to call his insurance, the doctors office will tell you what they accept.
I've never relied on my insurance to find a doctor.

In my experience doctors don't always know or care if your insurance is "in network" they'll collect their money from either you or insurance and doesn't matter to them.
Go to your insurance company website and do a provider search. It's usually really easy. Then call those doctors and try to get an appointment.

Go to a mental health hospital, you might not need a referral for a psychologist who can refer you to a psychiatrist. Depends on your insurance, call them and they will give you all this info. Tell them you were diagnosed as add as a child but your parents didn't want to put you on meds. Read up on symptoms and testimonials, then do some social engineering.

Just an FYI that this has nothing to do with getting a prescription.

There's a place in my area that literally advertises computerized testing for add and adhd. Walk in, take computer test, print off slip of paper saying you have add, take that paper to dr. and recieve script for adderall. Take 1 to 2 times a day until the inevitable psychosis catches up to you. Have fun while it lasts, it won't.
