Default Re: Coping with ADD

[ QUOTE ]
If I'm losing and waiting for cards I completely lose focus and end up making dumb plays because I lose my patience. But when I'm winning I can be very stimulated and "hyperfocused" for incredibly long periods of time.

I definitely second you on this point. I haven't really found an effective way to deal with this other than diagnosing my crappy play early on during a losing session and leaving the table until I feel like I can focus again. Once my focus is shaken, I have a very hard time regaining it, at the poker table in particular.
