I'm enough ADD (when that was the thing) to have prescribed Ritalin and all that jazz, but not ADHD enough to _really_ get your experience. An unsolicited suggestion - A specific form of meditation that is incredible active (because that "clear your mind" stuff really never worked) that I really, really enjoyed, and think helped me handle my lesser ADD symptoms. Pick something moderately significant; your breastbone, a flame, a cup of water. Right? Not totally random, but not like an idol or anything. Then you alternate focusing really, really into it - very much like tensing a muscle - with expanding your focus as wide as it'll go. Narrow & pointed, oscillate to wide & receptive. Straight up kinda squinting real hard / super-wide eyes helps get you started, but isn't really it. And... that's it. Just do that for a bunch of reps. Did two things for me: 1) Usual "workout" / "training" of focus/attention that all meditation does 2) Got to know the 'feel' / 'shape' / ?? of my sense-of-attention. And, didn't run into "mind does NOT sit still" problem of the "clear your mind" variety. I'm doing something the whole time. Thoughts? Questions? Comments?
