    It's hard to get the medication i need to just sit down and read a book or hold a normal conversation. Any thoughts of how to zero in on one singular thought or activity?

    Therapy. ADD and ADHD doesn't exist at all. It's often the cause of poor upbringing and dysfunctional families. You don't need pills. You need to talk out the inner issues making you feel like you have to be everywhere at once.

  4. The person above me is being ignorant. If you have ADD my only suggestion is to sit with a doctor and talk to them about it. If u are telling the genuine truth and don't have a history with drugs, and dont sound/act like ur a lying crackhead, you will get the prescription.

    I have my degree in "Learning Disabilities".

    ADD is very common , caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain and usually hereditary.

    Medicine has come a long ways in treating this. Many effective drugs. ( No drinking or other drug use if you want ADD drugs to work.)
    No need to suffer . See a Dr.

    I don't have ADHD, but I do need to be on the move a lot. Took me a long time to learn how to just sit. I used yoga and particularly yogic breathing. Don't believe what people tell you about having to be able to clear your mind and think of nothing to meditate. That's rubbish.

    The beauty of this is getting distracted doesn't matter. You just keep going back to the breathing, etc. And you can do it just about anywhere. The more you do it, the easier it is to hold that space.

    Good luck!
