    • About Me

      i am 26 years old and have been surviving add/adhd since childhood. years of therapy and counselling, psychologists, psychiatrists and neurologists have given me the basic tools for surviving my great challenges. i am still unable to do many things that i want to in life (like make a basic decision or remember what i went to the store for without a list and a reminder) i'm interested in associating with those who are afflicted with my troubles. i am also interested in helping my wife (gad)

    • Close ADHD / ADD

      add/adhd, diagnosed young, 26+ yrs old. lots of help, didn't like most meds. persuing natural remedies and lifestyle solutions.

      Treatments

      Music Somewhat Helpful
      classical, smooth jazz and jazz guitar w/piano. all ultra helpful w/ focus and relaxation
      Ritalin Somewhat Helpful
      worked pretty well, had to increase dosage regularly. no final solution here. hated side effects (cold sweats, clenched jaw etc.)
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      exercise clears the "fog". those times when i'm unclear or scattered are often also times when i do not exercise. EVERY DAY, EVERY WAY
      Cylert Working / Worked
      two big thumbs down. no effect. placebo would have been better.
      Paxil Working / Worked
      real stinking happy, still miserable underneath the medicinal facade. useless meds. (bad headaches too)
