in what way?

ADD and ADHD are really grey areas

a doctor i had when i was little diagnosed me with adhd and my parents just switched doctors lmao

lol

grey areas where a lot of medical people make a lot of money with

Like, if you drink a coffee, what does it do for you?

I only took meds for like Middle School then stopped cause it stunted my social life

@Tohob thats most likely what i would do if they said that about my son tbh

but then i really don't see him showing any signs of it anyway

I drink a lot of soda lol, it doesnt necessarily have an effect on me, although ive had to reduce to keep my kidneys healthier

fucking soda drinkers unite

ill use it to wake up sometimes but not often

Right?

So does Caffeine actually keep you awake?

not particularly, i think its more a placebo

You might actually be ADD. Maybe.

Just a pattern I've noticed.

People who are ADHD don't seem to get 'wired' from high caffeine intake

i mean the closest thing to it ive noticed is that i can get either easily distracted or overly focused on things

It tends to have more of a balancing effect.

Hey, have you guys heard of the glitches a guy named Swankybox on youtube found on one of his videos? Glitch #1 - The long-form video somehow got filed as an ad and started running as an ad across youtube. Glitch #2 - A third party was able to place advertisements on top of his ad that lead to a piracy website... He's tried to get youtube's attention for days but they will not reply.

but ive coped alot too

during school other than the meds i would sit in front to prevent myself from getting distracted

Coca-Cola is basically my self-medication at this point. 😛

The meds made me anti-social

so i stopped before high school

being distracted in school is 100% normal

i know but i was a focus thing

i mean school sucks ass

It's called ADD. It's named wrong.

can you focus though when you are doing something you like? like playing video games or watching anime? lol

First off, it's not a matter of 'attention'.

by late high school and into college i no longer needed to be up front to stay focused

That's just what the teacher demands.

i can def focus on things i like

The ADD mind processes information differently.

yeah i think the majority of 'ADD' is bunch of crap

like i performed better in history and English than i did math and sciences

Generally, it processes things coarser, and faster.

but that was in part due to interest

Fine details have a tendency to get lost
