Hi P20….. you sound more than a little frustrated. Being a person with with an ADD type brain….. may not be for others to get. I know that sounds harsh but experience says it’s true. A big challenge may be to learn to use the gift, and harness what it brings to the table. There are people all over this site who have done amazing things with their high horsepower brains.

I have found there are many tools out there that helped me with things that I found deficient at but….. getting involved with who I am and researching how to harness my brain were critical to success in any endeavour I took on. This is not an overnight process… there is no magic bullet. It is a lifetime activity of learning and building. I can only say that working from a “it’s broken”….or “they” position did not move the yardsticks for me… sorry to say.

There is a lot of great support both within this website and out in the world…. but support is just support….. the work is up to us as individuals.
