It means : Attention Deficit Disorder

Ask Susan

In her thread asking about Mac computers she mentioned that she has ADD. Well, guess what. I do too.

ummm I havent seen a adoctor, or really I did long time ago, but didnt continue with any of them long enough to reach anywhere. One suggested medications and I refused

I read somewhere that ADD can be treated either by medications or behaviourial treatemnts. I am interetsed in the latter. If there is any diet change, that is OK too. But no pills for me.

So, Sue and everyone else, I may have asked about this earlier I dont remember but I wish everyone gives their opinion on what to do.

Right now I am in my fifties. Stable job and family is OK. Been focused on preparedness for a few years now. Facing the same challenges like everyone else ( regarding teenage kids ..etc.). Problem is trying to focus on ANY job for long enough time. For example, I have got a room for my home office but it is now more than a year since a I made a resolution to oganise it the way I wanted. I have lost many things within the mess from SAKs to flash drives ..etc. and have missed business opportunities that I could have utilized for additional income and great contacts for post-retirement home-based business.

What I want to do, is FOCUS to build a part-time biz and read the huge collection of files I got from the net about self-improvement , home improvement, business developement, and clean up my marriage life from the small problems it has. Doing that while at the same time handling a stressful job and a few children education programs.

.... ahem, and working on preparedness off course.

Oh before you ask about DW, she is a great housewife but that's about it. She won't read a book in NLP or family preparedness.

Input from ADD folks is more than welcome.
Starting with Sue.
Thanks.
