    • Open ADHD / ADD

      Several therapists have suggested to me that it is likely I am ADD - though I have not sought out a diagnosis. Not severe enough for medication, I don't think, but I do have organizational difficulty, bouts of hyperfocus/distractiblity... times when I can focus on everything EXCEPT the task due tomorrow. Mostly though, I'd be happy if I could learn how to eliminate the piles and piles and piles that follow me everywhere I go.
