Can I "fix" my ADD? | ADHD Information

Thanks for the reply :)
I'm wondering if Red Bull will help me lol. I definitly need some pep. I hate
looking like a lazy person but I am just not that energetic for some reason. I
get tired easily and then I get annoyed with myself for getting after 1 task
when my aunt runs around all day doing one thing after another. She does
get tired but somehow she can just push through. Man I wish I had that
endurance. lol

People coped with ADHD before they had drugs.

They were either geniuses, or jailbirds.

Both classes had a lot of failures.

Find yourself an environment

that isn't as punishing for

the characteristic

expressions

of ADHD

ADD

And learn to take the lumps when they come.

Forgiveness helps.

Resilience.

optimism.

Bounce.

Bounce

and

rebounce.

I hear you I am often tired and even more so after starting the Concerta, I hope in my next DR's appointment he will give me something to counteract the effects that I am having with Concerta. You need to be careful when trying things that will boost your energy sometimes they are bad for you I am not familar with Red bull so I can't advise you there. Is there like a community health place that you could go to?

I absolutely believe it is possible. It takes work, I won't lie. Probably the most important first thing to do might be to figure out exactly what you want to accomplish; what is it that you want to change? After that, its a matter of figuring out the steps to getting to your goals, then implementing them. Support from friends, family, etc. helps too and provides motivation and encouragement.

supplements? Do you know anyone that's had some luck with that method?

I would rather take medication but it's almost impossible for me to do that
right now. ditto with supplements.[/QUOTE]

I would rather take medication but it's almost impossible for me to do that
right now. ditto with supplements.I have many symptoms of ADD and one of those symptoms was starring spells and I learned to control those or should I say fight them off, everytime I felt one coming on I would get up and get busy and that seems to help. Mine were so bad that I would have them while driving and almost paid for it. I would say learn how to counteract them find out what triggers them and look at your diet. Now if I can just do that with my racing mind among other things I would be happier.
