Thanks for that recomendation, I have just bought the book that you mentioned.

Over the last couple of weeks I have been madly trying to find out any information I can concerning inattentive ADD. After reading three books( Lazy,Stupid, Crazy will be the next ) and searching online I realize that according to most other people’s testimonials I do not share a lot of the same traits.

I do have one burning question which in all of my searching so far, have not been able to find the anwer. Work for me is becoming increasingly stressful due to the necessity of completing flow sheets throughout the day. Everything I do must be documented in a specific way and the documentation is ongoing all day long.

.I constantly miss boxes, put numbers into an incorrect box, write the date format wrongly, miss adding my initials ect.ect……………The frustrating thing is, I check my work over as much as pos. before it leaves the unit ( other staff do not ) and I still do not pick up on a lot of the errors! Most folks make mistakes too, but I make the most by far, despite a huge extra effort not to.I am highly motivated not to make errors. My work is important to me. I am constantly told to slow down or to check my work…………I do check my work……….does anyone else have the same problem? not so much with the organization of paperwork, ( which I am not good at either ) but with filling it in completely and with accuracy? why do I not see when there are obviouse blank boxes or incorrect entries?

Thank you for any responses
