A. hang out here when not working or being paid to work
B. see a professional – a neuro-psychologist or someone OTHER than a family doctor who can properly test and diagnose. There are a lot of things that LOOK like ADD.
C. Listen to the professionals about self-help, counseling, ask others how they handle organization (a big issues for folks like us) the tendency to waste time, keeping on track, etc.
D. in SOME cases, medications can help a LOT with C. Some with less severe ADD can manage once they find out and can get help getting organized and on track. I knew what needed to be done, but could not do it. I’m on meds and it’s helping a little in SOME areas. Different meds can help different people differently – in different areas…. it’s a “hit and miss” , or “trial and error” at times to get them right for YOU, your body, personality and symptoms.
E. get the video here and watch it beginning to end.It’s not expensive, and worth every penny.
In any case, see a *good professional* It might take someone with more recent training, a doc schooled back in the 70s might not be a lot of help unless they are keeping up and open-minded.
– I did, and I’m thrilled now that I know, and can move forward, and hopefully improve life. (not that it was really bad – life, that is – but it can be better)
Just some suggestions………..
