@Nice Teeth:

I have had ADD all my life and I was diagnosed with it 7 months ago. So far it has brought me nothing but grief, failure, and alienation from the world.

I am in counseling and on medication for ADD and depression.

I am finding out, when I can get this Ferrari brain of mine working on a problem, I can solve it, the next one, the third, and be 5 steps ahead of anyone sitting in the room. It’s hard to tell if it is me or the ADD, but since we are one in the same, I am not going to complain.

I have to keep telling myself that ADD is not good or bad, it just is what makes me…. me. I am trying to find those things that make it work for me, and not against me. The counseling and the meds help.

Hang in there.
