@zrectnat Good for you! This is a challenge I'm sure, but everyone in your life I'm sure supports you and you seem to be a very strong person capable of many great things!

-.- I swear I have either this or ADD.

Just one of the billions of examples is that when I looked at the comments, half of them were referring to things I didn't even know were in the video, zoned out AGAIN... what the hell is wrong with me.

medication works but then it doesn't. If you're cool being strung out then pop pills who cares. If you want to fix yourself in the long run then it'll take time to grow and learn life's lessons.

@Frenchcanadian100 Well done! I live in the UK, and have found that teaching sinple meditation and energy focussing techniques can very quickly help a teenager modify their behaviour, and make them feel much better about themselves. It also puts the control of their life into their own hands, which is far better than relying on others (parents, teachers or doctors) constantly doing things to or for them.

I have ADD and I don’t think it matters that he… ooh a cat.

@Chirsty76 that sounds as though it may fall under the autism umbrella

I have ADHD, but my parents never wanted to medicate me (and they're doctors) and I had to learn to control myself, concentrate and learn. We worked very hard and now O am very good in school and it only sometimes bothers me (I forgot do to a question in my last exam!). Parents medicating your kids is the easy way, but in the end everyone should learn to work out their problems without this! Not giving your child medication is the best gift you can give!

Their is no such thing as ADHD! Just a bunch of people that doesn't have self control or manners. Stop poisoning our kids with meds that turning our kids into zombies.
