Ahhh!



So I am a college student with ADD, and God only knows what other learning disorders I have. It is a day to day struggle for me to get out of bed and go to class. I don't have the hyperactive type of ADD, I have the just completely out of it type of ADD. I don't like going to class because I hear anything and everything that is going on in the classroom.



I have been on almost every ADD medicine that is known to man kind. I just want to give up and drop out of college every day, but I am not letting that be an option for me. I feel absolutely brain dead after one 50 minute lecture because my brain just can't take any more. I want to find a support group anywhere, either online, or close to where I live but I am having no luck.



Please, anyone, help, write your words of wisdom, anything Cry





Thanks
Julia

" I know a couple people that have ADD...um what I would suggest is maybe bringing a recorder to class and recording the lesson, that way you might be able to listen without having all the visual distraction. "
