@pinkyxmcgee Thank you. I was diagnosed with “mild” ADD in grade 6. So I guess they decided meds werent for me. It was back in ’84 so I don’t know if they thought Ritilan was for hyperactive boys only and ADD ended when you graduated from highschool?!? I continued to struggle in school medicore grades with learning strategies and extra time on tests. When I became an adult, my daily and life responsibilites grew enormously (not just school and a part-time job anymore). For 20 years of my adult life I failed at everything over and over again [post secondary school, relationships, jobs, career, friends, home, family etc..]. I know realize my failure is attributed to only my untreated ADD. I am waiting for medication. I can’t wait to see if this helps me to use the tools I have developed over the years and all the exciting new ones.
