Re: [epilepsy] Does anybody here have adult ADD?

Hey, Steve! I have a raging case of ADD. I'm almost 60 and I've dealt with it off and on my whole life. When I was a kid I was considered lazy and unmotivated. I'm not saying I wasn't, but I know the ADD had a lot to do with it. As an adult, it has come and gone in cycles. I go from being extremely sharp and effective all the way to what I call CFBBHS (Can't Find My Butt with Both Hands Syndrome). Get a copy of _Healing ADD_ by Dr. Daniel Amen for some really good information on it. I used several of his suggestions for natural supplements, including amino acids, that helped tremendously. Unfortunately, when I have a seizure it sort of "reboots" my brain and I have to cut way, way back on the dosages. Anyway, you're not alone! ;-)

I was just wondering if anybody in the group has Adult ADD or Adult

Attention Deficit Disorder. Reading all the symptoms of it describes

me, big time!!!

Has anybody looked into treatment for this as far as maybe finding a

way to deal with it more as far as maybe learning to work with it in

improving yourself in some way? I would enjoy hearing from others.

Like the epilepsy itself isn't enough fun (smile)! Hey, I'm seizure

free since surgery but still, missing a couple of card in my deck

above the neck (big smile)! Take care, keep a smile on your face!
