Doctor Foxx 07/09/18 2:54:54 PM #11:	HeyPuff posted... Doctor Foxx posted... HeyPuff posted... Doctor Foxx posted... You have it backwards. It's ADHD now, not ADD. And it's still around. I got diagnosed at age 30 If you want to know why they have differentiated between inattentive and hyperactive in the type of ADHD. So I'm ADHD predominantly inattentive, which would have just been ADD before. It's ADHD-PI now. Also they changed that in the early 90s... This. Its all classified as ADHD. I recently found out I had it. I have a ton of weird quirks. I always knew I had some weird mannerisms (mouthing hypothetical arguments in my head, for example) but I attributed it with my personality. One day, I was wondering why I had so many weird quirks and I looked up symptoms to ADHD and realized I had it. I always thought it was normal to be inside your head 24/7. Yes diagnosis and treatment have been a real game changer for me. Made a lot of pieces fit How has it affected your personality, and what do you take? I take concerta 18 or 27mg depending on the day. Is help me to prioritize tasks, accomplish different tasks and move on to the next logical tasks. Huge difference. I'd say most importantly it is helped improve my recall to allow me to remember to do the things that I still need to do. Personally I noticed an extreme (positive) change in my productivity at work simply because i could continue focusing on the same task for an extended period of time and get right back to it after an interruption. I'd say it's allowing me to queue mental tasks and return to normal. instead of having one thing I'm doing that could randomly switch to something else without me remembering what I should have been doing to begin with The downsides are that it really doesn't help sleep, it's costly, and there are of course health risks. Personality wise it has helped with my confidence and sociability to be able to remember things more and pay attention to conversations with people without going off on don't mental journey. The downside has been somewhat increased irritability, particularly with people interrupting me. --- Never write off the Doctor! <cite>Doctor Foxx posted [p:904768638] in What ever ...
