[quote=Anonymous]I have lived with ADD and was able to overcompensate for a long time, but had to work hard. I’m a competitive person, so I was ok with taking the SAT 3 times so I could get into the school I wanted, etc. I sort of secretly felt something was wrong with me though. Like life was so easy for everyone else and I wasn’t “really” smart. Once I had more than one kid, it was clear I had something going on. I haven’t been able to work out a perfect medication situation for every day, but I take meds occasionally and they help in some ways. Just knowing that my brain is a little different is helpful though, and I feel like I can look at my coping mechanisms more strategically now.[/quote]
