Default Re: Coping with ADD

[ QUOTE ]
I think you guys are mistaking the actual Medical condition of ADD with the affect that electronics are having on our life.

With computers, IM, et. al... you are able to multi-task... not the same as ADD... my nature, true ADD patients CAN'T multi-task

I don't know if you're talking about yourself or what but from my experience (and I'm certified on a million different levels -- if ADD exists, I have it), this is definitely not true. I multitask excessively to the point of not doing what I'm supposed to at all, with one window distracting me from the next as I develop and lose little mini-obsessions with a thousand different things a day. It's like heroin.
