I have had ADD since I was little, I was taken off of Ritlin(sp?) about a year after they started giving it to me. I have alot of difficulty concentrating and it is often times hard to not let my mind slip from topic.
When I begin saying something I tend to ramble on like a moron until I realize what I am now talking about is different then the origanal topic. Things like that happen often.
I am often easily distracted and find myself straying from topic. I also find that I tend to be a lazy person. But I don't want others around me to know that I have ADD so I don't use it to get them to do things for me. I also don't use it to seek help like I should've for a majority of high school. Not for what others can do for me, but for ways to concetrate or stay on subject. Often times that was all I needed. But because I never sought out that kind of help I never got it and have done poorly in school.
