    I have A.D.D. with a project completion complex

    I have no idea if I worded that correctly, but anyway...

    I think I had A.D.D., because I can never focus on one thing for too long. I also cannot stand it when I start a project and not finish it (I'm sure you can guess where this is going). So I currently have about 10 different projects or so started, but I got bored with them and moved on, but yet I can't stand the fact that they're not finished!

    I'M STUCK IN AN ENDLESS LOOP! I actually started re-writting my very first VB.NET program because it was never finished. ACK

    well

    I got the same thing, It's really annoying! And once you start recreating something you get bored with that to, and start recreating something else

    Yes there is. If I would have spelled it ADD, people would have said "Omg, I have problems adding too!"

    Or parents need an excuse for why they can't control their kids.

    Just wait till all the kids diagnosed with A.D.D. get into the working world. I wonder how many of them will successfully get disability pay because of their "illness".

    Taking bets on the date of the first lawsuit suing for a.d.d. disability. I'd say within the next 5-7 years.

    what your 6 year old child won't sit still for hours taking some stupid standardized test? drug him!

    if you ask me that means healthy. giving them medicine is the same as putting alcohol in a baby bottle to make them sleep

    While this thread was ment as a joke, giving a kid some pills to calm him down is NO WAY NEAR AS BAD has giving him alcohol in his bottle. If you honestly think giving a kid a drug(legal) to calm him down and putting alcohol in his bottle is just as bad, then you need to rethink your previous post calling people who have ADD stupid.

    Remember, the kids didn't make up ADD, doctors did so don't call people who 'have ADD' stupid.
