I'm new here on this board, I'm a 27 year old female. I'm struggling through this new job I have. I can't seem to focus on anything and I don't know how to begin projects. I rush to get things done but when I turn them in there's a lot of errors. I'm trying my best to read over things and catch my mistakes but it doesn't seem to work. I make silly little mistakes that shouldn't have been made in the first place. I don't really see myself as a hyper person, at least not on the outside, but my mind is usually going a mile a minute about everything and anything other than what I'm supposed to be focused on.

I have a doctor's appointment set up for next week and I was going to ask my doctor if this is "normal". I'm weary about taking medications because I hear so many bad things about them.

Is there any alternatives or good books out there that might help me? I'm not even sure that I have ADD.
