How would I go about asking my parents to get me diagnosed/medication

I believe that I may have ADHD and/or autism, and my mother said she thinks so too because she is. My problem is, I'm nervous about asking for a diagnosis in order to get medication to help with my ADHD. I don't want to seem like I'm asking for it for the wrong reasons. I can't focus in school for long periods of time, especially things I'm not interested in. I have trouble remembering things or staying on task.

Sometimes I doubt if I actually have ADHD or if I'm just not trying hard enough, so an actual diagnosis would put that to rest hopefully, and get me the help I need. I know this is probably an irrational fear though.
