I recently got diagnosed with ADD!

…and I’m so happy that I now know.

My Mom is sure I had HA as a kid and since 9 years of age I knew I was different. I have all the classic symptoms, and I guess I have been good at compensating for them, with a college education and being an Officer in the Armed Forces. BUT I’m leaving active duty because of problems, some of which are symptoms of ADD, hating paper work and being disorganized. Combat and race car driving keep me focused, but sitting at a desk is death!!
Anyway, I’m taking Ritalin and I feel great, I can go to sleep without having to be totally exhausted, and can study for almost two hours at a time, and I’m happy. The ADD depression is gone, and that feels great too.
So if you think you have it, go to a doctor and get checked out!

I just got “ADD friendly ways to organize your life” anyone read this book?
