- sneak 14y agoDon't forget "buncha" and "grammer"
- jeffdavis 14y agoWhat is the problem with that reasoning? Not liking and failing out of school is not a medical problem.
- VonGuard 14y agoI never claimed ADHD/ADD didn't exist. I'm just saying I was called a prime example of ADD, and I was able to eventually control myself. I'm sure there are people out there that can't, but I'd personally wager that most folks who have ADD ADHD just need to find out where they fit in life, not take a drug that allows them to do something they otherwise couldn't. If it works for you, fine, more power to you. My real point is that calling someone broken because they are diagnosed with ADHD ADD is wrong, in my opinion. It's a character trait or flaw that can be useful if you find the right place for you. The right place for an ADHD ADD person might just not be in an office sitting at a chair all day. Maybe it's out running a trade show, or a frantic diner or store, or maybe it's being a professional gamer. Who knows? ADD ADHD doesn't mean yer broken and only fixable with drugs. You can find your own way in life, is what I am saying, and drugs are not the only option. Dropping out of school is the best decision I ever made, frankly.
