Karen, your description of ADD is right on target with mine. In fact, I'm now wondering if we could be the same person, since I also have a two yr old AND a Gyn appt this week! Ha, Ha, and Ha!
When I finally figured out the ADD thing,(which I never would have done, if I hadn't found out that it could be "without hyperactivity"), I also, had a huge revelation. It was actually a huge sense of relief! To know that all my childhood 'oddities' were the result of a brain glitch and not the result of a defective personality, wow what a concept!
Do you have a Pdoc, and does he know about the Adrafinil? I am thinking about switching from AD's to Provigil, since I can get that prescribed and my insurance will pay for it. But, if the provigil doesn't work, I think the Adrafinil will be worth the money. I just don't know how to bring up the subject of using something that is not ok'd in the US, with my Pdoc.
Would you mind if I E-mailed you? We seem to have so much in common, and I'd love to get to know you even better. Let me know. CarolAnn
