I have mild ADD, and I have to be honest:

It's fun to have. It makes life a little more interesting.

Except for the fact that I bombed a lot of my high school courses because of it.. or that I can't sleep in darkness and quiet because I go nuts..

Other than that, it's a blast.


Do you have ADD? How does it make you feel?
If not, do you know anyone with ADD? How do you feel about them?

I have a friend who has it. He's a blast when he doesnt take his pills.

The people that I know have ADHD are really annoying to hang out with unless there are more than 3 people

ADHD. I take medication for it. Without it, I would not be able to function.

I have ADHD and take meds for it (Sometimes I'll skip them for a week or two to get a feel for life without again), I understand the whole thing with silence. But flunking at school? Srsly, it's not THAT hard to control when you need to.

(Taking the meds without the slow release capsules = wired as fuck. Get some if you can find it)

I didn't fail. I just got very low marks because I couldn't concentrate for the life of me.

Things like Drama and Art, though, I did fine.

My problem was not that I was unable to control myself, but simply I could not pay attention long enough to understand something.

If it's interesting then it's easy to focus.

My mum got worried when I told her I couldn't sleep unless I was listening to my iPod with the curtains wide open. I'm weird.
