Baseball games are an excellent background sound for taking a nap on the couch!, but golf is better. You can turn up the sound a lil and it sounds like they’re trying to be quiet cuz we’re taking a nap. The ideal golf background napping sound is when it’s near the water and you can hear birds, waves, and wind. Hmm. I guess my TV is not such a totally useless idiot box after all. 
That’s great Ipsofacto

Sometimes I wonder if watching tv could actually be one of the smaller less provable causes of ADHD. Or at least ADHD symptoms? So yeah ashockly55, I’m thinking yes on both ?’s. Maybe TV even has a snowball effect on ADDers. Watch the tube too much, symptoms get worse, on and on… doh!. All the commercials probably have a dumbing down affect on the masses. Like Ipsofacto’s lowering tide thing.
We’re creative enough to come up with lot’s of new ways to defeat loneliness. Music is a great coping tool, I just get burned out on music once in a while. More and more lately, I’m fighting my way past the difficult levels of new friendships where they usually end. I’ve been pretty far outside of my comfort zone in social situations a lot the last couple months. Dealing with the loneliness part of ADHD that some of us go through could be one of the hardest changes we face. It’s rough feeling like I’m just now learning the social skills most people learn when they’re in junior high school. But heck, I was the freaky, quiet, n shy kid for a lot of those years. I just never really finished growing out of it, I never understood myself fully, so I didn’t know how to act. It’s sooo hard to not just give up and stay home, nice n safe where I don’t have to learn how to just “hang out” with normal people, I just don’t understand a lot of the changes I’m going through, it’s all new territory. Maybe it’s entertainment in general, not just TV we get addiction tendencies with. All the things we do to escape our feelings, and people. Heck, I just don’t know sometimes. I’ve left behind so many unhealthy coping skills. One thing I know for sure, TV has gotten much worse. The Internet and technology, social networking sites, and posting/reading here, instead of just talking to people in person is a big part of why I feel disconnected with humanity. People don’t just hang out and talk in person with me at this point in my life, so many of those kinds of relationships have just fizzled out for so many years, n all of a sudden I’m 47 and my memory is not getting better as much as I want to think it is.
I’ve written and re-written this post endlessly for about 3 hours… I’m facing the fact that my entertainment and technology gluttony has stolen a whole lot of my life. That’s not fun to realize. I sure ain’t giving up now, that’s for sure!
I think they said August for the new video’s, I’m looking foreword to em. Then we can all get cured, go lead normal, productive, calm, cool, and well adjusted lives!, huh?. Yeah right!!!! lol.
I know they will helps lot’s at least 
I’m expecting more ideas about the hard work we all have to face that has to do with accepting that we’re different, but changing the way we cope with it. Having coping tools that work better than lot’s of the stuff we’ve tried to make work for so many years.
