Good on you. I loved hearing your positive update.
I too believe I have ADD to some extent, makes sense as my dad has bipolar
I wont go down the road of medication, I believe I can handle it without resorting to medication.
But I'm embracing it. If I do have it me stressing that I have it, isn't going to help. I too am trying to find ways to work with and basically take notice of my patterns throughout the day.
I can literally switch off on an activity after about 15-20 minutes. I noticed I need to jump from one thing to the next, but I'm ok with that, as long as I understand what is happening and how to be as productive as I can be in those 20 minutes, then that's ok. Someone also suggested a good book on here
Refuse to Choose!: A Revolutionary ... - Google Books
Incidentally, I'm wondering if ADD sufferers or people that jump from one thing to another have more of an entrepreneurial kind of mind. I do and I think this suits me best. I know a lot of people with ADD find it hard to work in a normal work situation, so I wonder if being an entrepreneur would be more suited to this kind of personality/condition?
I also agree that diet has a lot to do with it. I'm taking b12 supplements now and they seem to help me concentrate better, as does a raw diet.
