I soo can't stand they talk about adhd in a way it is a diseas and need to be banned out. ADHD is more needed by society than those people can even ever imagine

ADHD,Major Depression,OCD,OCPD,Socail Anxiety Disorder and alcohol addiction.I was diagnosed with thisyears ago.Too much wrong with me too overcome.I can't afford psychotherapy and meds side effects have been a nightmare.

My name is Blake Andrew Taylor and I am 17. I also have ADHD. I attended private school and transferred to public school at the start of the 7th grade. I am currently reading this book... surprised on how it reflects my life like a mirror.

Wow this explains why my daughter made such low grades in her Spanish class. She has an IEP for Math and also has Asthma and allergies which has caused her to miss alot of school.She is very smart and usually makes good grades but the transition into middle school was not smooth.She needs help. I have been advocating for my child as much as I can but its hard to get help where we live. We have not had a car for five years now and I am running out of hope that we will get any help to get one.

My ex boyfriend he used to hate watching t.v with me, b/c I was always changing the t.v channels. He used to get annoyed cause he said I wouldn't let him watch t.v at all. He used to say, that when I was on ADD med, that would behave better, that I was like night and day, I think he liked me on meds b/c I wouldn't argue with him, I was calmer. He used to tell my mom, that I was a better person on Meds. I personally like it when I'm hyper hahaha..I'm fun and wild

zomg, im Blake Talylor... not that Blake Taylor.... I never wrote a book... I don't have ADHD.... but i can keep spelling my last name wrong over and over unknowingly and thats why i had to change this comment over and over.... when they say Blake Taylor i always look.... ZOMG ITS FRUSTRATING!

[ginsengchris]

I am very pissed off, it sounds like all the doctors have just suddenly woke up instead of just frowing drugs at people with ADHD. Its been around for a very long time and all the experts needed to do is ask someone who has it and how they see the world through there eyes. DUM DUM DUM.
