A.D.D HYPOCRISY
Sometimes you cannot pay attention
Sometimes you over analyse
Sometimes you jump from distraction to distraction
Sometimes you are absent in mind
Sometimes you are inexhaustible
Sometimes you are exhausted
The list goes on, on and on as far as the eye can see
A condition you may or may not have herd of, surrounded in controversy.
Attention Deficit Disorder, also known as ADD
Not just word but a way of life, for others as well as me!
On the surface you see us like you
The only difference is that we don't try
And that the challenges we face are the same as yours
But the difference with us is that we lie!
Let us go on a little journey now, into the world of the ADD mind
A world of clashing thoughts and sounds, a place of another kind
...Sometimes you cannot pay attention
Sometimes you over analyse
Sometimes you jump from distraction to distraction
Sometimes you are absent in mind...
Oh hang on - am I repeating my self?
You have may have noticed I do that sometimes
It happens when I forget the last thing that I thought
I think the thought I was thinking just died!
But before you judge, let me tell you this much
Its not strait forward as you shall see
It's drive that drives us, a COMPULSION to FOCUS!
YEAH I know that that sounds hard to believe.
Now if I've left you some what confused by now
Then You might know what its like to be me
And although I don't think the world's got it right yet
Just for now we shall call it ADD.

ADHD
I have heard several people tell me that ADHD is not a real medical condition. Some doctors and psychiatrists even argue about whether it is a legitimate disorder or not.
ADHD stands for "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder." Some persons affected basically cannot pay attention, some persons can pay attention, but are hyperactive and cannot sit still, and finally, some are a combination of both. I am in the last category.
When I was 6 years old, my first-grade teacher noticed that I was very hyperactive and easily distracted. Sure, all kids are hyper and have a hard time focusing, but she said that I was

ADHD
There was something wrong, but of course, something is always wrong. Never can a day go by when something's "normal." But what is normal? Sure as hell ain't this. What's worse is when you think everything is "normal," but then you realize it not. But that is beside the point in this. A point? Yes, was there ever one? I believe so. Though I can't quite remember... So it must not of been important. Would of remembered it if it was.
So yes, there is something wrong with everything. Can't ever be "normal" as the world sees it. Just can't be. One moment I'm here, then next I'm gone into my own little world. Don't take it as unkind, this is just w
