cannabis helps better than methamphetamine.....but the government says I must take the class 3, highly addictive, controlled substance- rather than the organic, non-toxic plant to ease my turmoil. Brilliant bunch of politicians eh?!

Hey dude. I think I was double blessed. Google and read pages on "Dual exceptionality".
Stuff like : giftedkids.about.com/od/giftedandld/a/gt_and_ld_3.htm
Also read what you can find on different learning styles, e.g. kinesthetic, auditory, visual. Even today, as i read, i translate the paragraphs into pictures in the margin.
Find your own ways to draw attention, to inspire. My best quality is my insatiable curiosity for all topics. And that comes directly from my ADD. Good Luck

I have ADD, and I'm a very successful senior engineer (32 y/o).
I found ways to study and harness the potential of my diverse scattered thinking. Sure, I struggle with procrastination and finishing tasks, but tools around me help. I have never been medicated.
My solutions are creative and insightful, I can almost feel the answers coming to me. So, its also been a blessing.
