[QUOTE=tasty-man;13563608]You have no idea what your talking about it's not about bad parenting Learn the facts and read about it on the internet, don't hear about it on south park[/QUOTE] It affects your behaviour, therefore it can be overruled by the rest of your mind. Behaviour is always a choice.

I know I certainly do. Take up pen-spinning if you're one of us fiddlers. It's less destructive that peeling the paint off of the desk and it looks kick ass.

[QUOTE=reedbo;13562245]ADHD and ADD are bullshit conditions, Children have always had problems focusing on stuff and being the general hyperactive cunt.[/QUOTE] It's different with ADD, one moment your listening to the teacher and 5 minutes later you realize your mind drifted off into thought and you missed a bunch of the lecture.
[QUOTE=C0linSSX;13563971]Are you fucking kidding me? I can't concentrate for shit.[/QUOTE] Me neither, I call it 'boredom.' [QUOTE=C0linSSX;13564007]It's different with ADD, one moment your listening to the teacher and 5 minutes later you realize your mind drifted off into thought and you missed a bunch of the lecture.[/QUOTE] Again, I call this boredom. The lecture isn't interesting so I do something else.
[QUOTE=Enth°;13561694]I don't believe in ADHD or ADD. Just excuses to medicate children.[/QUOTE] If it is an excuse to medicate children, why don't you take one and see how well it fucks you up. For those with ADHD, it serves as a way to actually focus for longer than 2 seconds.
[QUOTE=xamllew;13561719]"Hey Doc' my kid is upset and won't listen to m-" "THAT KID'S GOT ADHD!"[/QUOTE] Not really, they ask you 50 billion questions and make you do all this bullshit.

[QUOTE=Dank Dave;13564076]Chris, not all of us are super humans like you. There are many people who can't actually control themselves at times.[/QUOTE] Can't is not the same as won't, although people often seem to forget this and use the words interchangably.
[QUOTE=C0linSSX;13564007]It's different with ADD, one moment your listening to the teacher and 5 minutes later you realize your mind drifted off into thought and you missed a bunch of the lecture.[/QUOTE] I do that all the time and I don't take medicine for it
[QUOTE=C0linSSX;13564007]It's different with ADD, one moment your listening to the teacher and 5 minutes later you realize your mind drifted off into thought and you missed a bunch of the lecture.[/QUOTE] Ahaha, are you kidding me? I do that all the time, doesn't mean I have a disease. Not paying attention to something boring is natural. Personally, I think ADD and ADHD is made up. Of course, I admit there really are some cases where it really must be something wrong with the poor child, but in most cases people just want to have ADD/ADHD to make themselves feel better, to have an excuse of why they are behaving the way they are.
[QUOTE=787-5805;13561668]Concerta is an ADHD controlled medication. It makes you: Iritable Angry Sad Upsets You Stomache Gives You Headaches Heart Palptations Can Give you Tourette syndrome and make you schizophrenic. A way better adhd medication is aderal XR No side affects like concerta, I never knew this and i had been suffering for 2 and half years don't be a victim like me. insomnia[/QUOTE] Aderal is not side effect free. At least what I was taking wasn't. It gave me those same side effects, plus loss of appetite.
It's amazing how people got through childhood for thousands of years before this without these medications, isn't it?
I supposedly have ADHD, I can tell you most people who claim to have it haven't actually been diagnosed. At first they go "I'm so hyper some times I probably have ADD/ADHD" then onto "I'm so hyper, I have ADD/ADHD" and finally just to "I have ADD/ADHD". When I was a kid and got diagnosed with ADHD I had no idea what the fuck it was, I just got some riddilen(sp?) and started taking it, my grades actually shot up and I thought a lot clearer. I soon moved up to Concerta and stayed steady like that, eventually I just stopped taking the medicine and am perfectly fine, albeit still a bit 'wandering' but that's probably normal for a highschooler.

How many people on Facepunch has ADD/ADHD?
[QUOTE=InvaderNouga;13563381]Not really at all, take it from me. I try my best to control myself, but sometimes you just fidget around and touch and play with stuff sub-consciously.[/QUOTE] Your parents failed.
[QUOTE=Enth°;13561694]I don't believe in ADHD or ADD. Just excuses to medicate children.[/QUOTE] See: [QUOTE=xamllew;13561719]"Hey Doc' my kid is upset and won't listen to m-" "THAT KID'S GOT ADHD!"[/QUOTE] It's real, it's just that it's overmedicated and people self-diagnose themselves. Same with Bipolar, Dyslexia/graphia, Asbergers, etc.
[QUOTE=Enth°;13562015]Yes, because paying attention to things is what children excel at.[/QUOTE] I think you should look into ADHD before you just assume it's attention problems.
My mom says I don't have ADHD/ADD but apparently she still wants to give it to me. I do fine in school and pay attention even without the pill.
Actually, thinking about it, I may have ADD, or maybe I'm just slightly autistic. Maybe I should see my doctor.
It's all about control. Myself have ADHD and so do my brothers, we where not fed pills but instead given proper parenting like children should do. If a kid knows he wont get a slap for doing something wrong he'll keep doing it in sense. To put it lightly, we fucked around when mum was around, but when dad was around we shut the fuck up and did what we where told. Mum being a liberal hippy, dad being a military man.
I've been taking Concerta every damn day for the past 3 years. I get none of those side-affects. Just loss of appetite; which my doctor told me before I started taking it. And the fact I get really fucking tired when it wears off. But, it keeps me awake during school actually.
[QUOTE=Enth°;13561694]I don't believe in ADHD or ADD. Just excuses to medicate children.[/QUOTE] I have ADHD. And OCD. Sometimes, i'm just uncontrollable. It is real.
Aderal and Ritelin make you short. I take Concerta. Only things that make me angry/irritable are stupid people that are [b]everywhere[/b] at my school. I fucking hate them. So much. And I've already stopped taking concerta, so you can't blame that.
Isn't ritalin and Concerta the same as taking speed for people without said disorders?
