verticalkiller Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 30 Jul 2006, 17:22 · [Salvaged from Archive] So, yeah, you think it's real? It kinda just came out of nowhere; do you think it's just an excuse for some parents so they don't have to discipline little Johnny and would rather have a doped up kid walking around? Personally, for the majority I think it's an alternative to spankings, kid's don't have boundaries anymore and once they get out of control ADD must be the solution. Not saying all, cause there are some wound up kids out there that DO need it. Or for those who find it extremly difficult to sit and learn without getting bored or easily distracted. I just think for the most part that it's crapy parenting and the end result has been a kid whose just out of control. So the solution to alot of parents is to just give em a pill that will get them to shut the fuck up, at least for a little while.
DISCLAIMER: If you've just read this and are about to post some flaming bullshit about how much i suck and should die and blah blah blah.......DONT. Just keep moving on cause I for once don't want this topic to go elsewhere. You know who you are....... |

Uh oh Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 30 Jul 2006, 22:22 · [Salvaged from Archive] i believe there are adult cases of ADD, i actually know of a person who is on pills for ADD and from what i hear she's extremely hyper. i was told she was talking to her grandfather, and the guy's old and with a bit of hearing loss it's hard to keep up, the girl was talking about this and that jumping around with topics and he was just pulling a smile and nod.
the girl's on pills but is still hyper, i've only met her once and was in the car with her, she was just talkative as hell. |
Quackers Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 30 Jul 2006, 22:23 · [Salvaged from Archive] ADHD the thing you gte subscribed rittlerlin for? Or something like that?
Well either that or something that sounds like that, try snorting them crushed up. :D Top stuff. |
Big Ozzie Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 30 Jul 2006, 22:42 · [Salvaged from Archive] AD-HD is found in juvenile patients. Most children grow out of the Hyper-Activity Disorder as they go through puberty and enter their teens. It wasn't known to the medical profession that the Attention Deficit part of it stays on into adulthood.
I had AD-HD growing up, but the doctors blamed it on medications for allergies and asthma and that I was just a "Hyper Kid"....not knowing that it was a chemical imbalance in the brain.
I outgrew the "Hyper" side but kept the Attention Deficit Disorder as an adult. It wasn't until the last ten years that my Doctors have been able to diagnose it and prescribe proper medication. |

Give me a dab of base or a line of charlie any day of the week. :P Back in the day a friend of mine had about 50 of 'em left over cuz he stopped taking em.

I dont want to why it goes on your hip... but.. ok. I used to take the 2nd worst thing possible. Zoloft. That SHIT will make you want to kill yourself quicker then you can wipe your ass. I felt so shitty and I hated taking them for my depression issues. So one day I took the entire bottle, and chucked it in the trash. And ive gotten over my depression pretty much. Also, ive lost the hyper part of my ADHD. :D :D :D :) :) :) :twisted: |

Sometimes I envy America's private healthcare system, cuz you've essentially all got a consistently reliable supplier with a wide variety of stock.

Yeah strong will power doesn't mean you're not gonna die.... still it could affect your state of thinking... Why would they proscribe somthing so strong to a 12-year-old... they should make anti-depressants for young people...

Big Ozzie Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 31 Jul 2006, 10:22 · [Salvaged from Archive] I am reading through all the comments from all you peeps on your personal experiences with ADD or ADHD and even cases of Depression which all go hand in hand together as they relate to an increase or decrease of chemicals produced by glands in the Brain.
What I seem to notice is a common factor with those with the ADD problems.......we (yes I am included) are the top posters in Filecabi.net. I would dare to say that we all (at one time or another) were/are obsessed by video games.
Both the posting and the video games have a direct link with the electrical stimulation between the eye, hand and the Brain and at the same times, the constantly changing topics, conversations with members serve to further stimulate the brain into producing these needed chemicals.
I also have noticed that most people who have ADD need to be in control of the TV remote...constantly flipping channels as we loose interest in a program and it no longer stimulates our brain cells.
Do any of you see a common factor here? |

Somtimes I'll have a show on VH1 and I'll flip it to MTV and I'll try to watch both at once and then I'll flip it FOX News and see somthing cool about to come on and then I'll try to flip back to VH1 or the music video channel and MTV2 is just one channel up! Oh wait my show on VH1 is back on but I don't wanna miss the story on FOX but wait I love that music video! Wait a minuite today's Thursday. The Dudesons come on on Spike what time do they come on anyway? Crap Viva La Bam is coming on MTV2 right now I love that show too. Where the hell is my damn MP3 player? I wanna listen to that one song by Guns N Roses... I really wanna pace around too I have a uncontrollable urge to pace around all the time. Wow there's so many cool things on TV at the moment! This doesn't happen everyday! I start to pace around while my mom tells me to stop changing the channels and make dinner!

I'll be taking notes, listening to the boring ass teacher, and then after about 5 minutes my eyes will just wonder off to a poster on the wall or I'll look out the window, completely forgetting about the teacher.

Maths seems to drain me of my will to live. Such a boring lesson. Any class that was boring and had no real use I didnt concentrate in though.
Ive never been diagnosed with anything dodgy like ADHD. But as a youngster I distracted the whole class every lesson in primary school, like jumping about screaming/shouting ect. I had to see a child psychologist or sommin, well I only saw him once and we never went back. I wasnt diagnosed with anything though. |

that's no ADD, that's the shittiness of math kicking in. i almost failed it twice, technically did the second time (summer school) but had my mark bumped up to a pass, just barely though. even on my second chance i couldn't give a shit about math.
for people with ADD, i remember sometimes i questioned if i had it and i'm not 100% sure, i know nowadays i can act pretty calm so i may just be growing out of it, but i'm not 100% on this. what i want to ask is when it comes to just sitting down or waiting, what happens? like is it just fidgeting, or unable to sit still, or what? |

Oh yeah...
I think I have ADD. But only in math class. I can't concentrate in there AT ALL. It's like... I'll be taking notes, listening to the boring ass teacher, and then after about 5 minutes my eyes will just wonder off to a poster on the wall or I'll look out the window, completely forgetting about the teacher. Or I'll start a doodle or something.
I can concentrate perfectly well in other classes... I guess that's why I failed Algebra B this year. :lol: Oops.

Well for the fidgeting part..... I was very calm as a child in school... but know I can't sit still for more than..... 10 minuites? I start to tap my toes or move my legs or play with my fingers, then I start to doodle or scribble in my notebook or work, then I start to have a daydream then I start looking at the clock playing games with it.... "C'mon.... change dammit!" Or I'll try as hard as I can to not look at it and see how long I can go without checking the time.... I try to go for little "walks" before class or get a drink of water to prepare me for class... but it never worked... |
Evil Conservative Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 31 Jul 2006, 22:49 · [Salvaged from Archive] I know I don't ADD..once I begin something I MUST finish it most preferably without interuptions. I can watch movies all the way through without switching a channel. Same for the news..etc. I write as well...and that takes patience indeed. Can't imagine having to constantly switch things to keep my attention up.
I'm not flawless however. |

That Dude Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 1 Aug 2006, 21:02 · [Salvaged from Archive] I was diagnosed with ADD when I was in first grade. I had medicine prescribed for me. I was never given said medicine, and I never found out about it until about last year. When I confronted my father about him never telling me that I had been diagnosed with ADD, and had never treated me, he responded, "Well, we tried telling you, but you would never pay attention to us!"
That being said, I think it's a load of crock. |
