Carbs. And it’s worse in the winter. I am like a bottemless pit. And I use carbs to put me to sleep even when I wake up in the middle of the night, because nothing else works. I’m dreading this winter because all carbs do is slow my head and that’s not what I want during the day. Isn’t caffeine supposed to be bad for ADD because it cuts down on oxygen to the brain? Or is it okay? I hate looking like everyone else on the outside when on the inside I’m working like crazy to try to keep up. This website is such a life-saver.
