I was wondering if there is somebody who has experienced something similar to what I am going through now. I am 22 yrs old and am now reconsidering what to do about my ADD. I have never been treated for ADD and have fortunately not suffered too bad from my disease up until now. But at the moment I am really noticing the effects this disease has upon me. It has a lot to do with being in my first year at one of the top law schools in the country. Both the distractions and the frustrations have been mounting as I follow thought after thought into never-never land without being able to piece my readings together. Before I think I was able to get by with just being intelligent and determined but now efficiency is a key concern and there are not enough hours in the day. My main concern about medications is the ability to perform at a certain level throughout the day. I do not want highs and lows to effect my body and my life. But I know now I need help if I'm going to be able to cut it in the world (given my high-level aspirations). Has anybody out there had experience with this or know what it feels like? Thanks, Biron
