I ve not been dx as having add or adhd. But I have noticed in the past as well as now that I am really bad at organizing tasks and staying focused. Example: I was watching t.v. last night with my husband and he turned and said wow that was crazy I didnt know what he was talking about because my focus went from the story line to the little dot at the end of the t.v. stations logo. Another example, I was asked to teach the kids at boy scouts the Cherokee langauge. So I get excited because I get to teach these kids about my culture well the day comes and I am not prepared found out last minute my printer is out of ink so I can't print pages for them. And while I am talking to them my attention is constantly torn away from them to talking to another parent It was embarrasing. I constantly lose things only to find them in an open spot right where I left it and while the object is there in that wide open spot, I am looking through drawers, jewelry boxes, etc. It's nerve racking that during a conversation with someone my I don't remeber a thing they said because if a fly lands on the wall beside them, it takes my attention away from the person and onto what the fly is doing. I want to talk to my doctor about it but I don't know how they would diagnose add/adhd and I don't want to tell them my symptoms and they just say "oh yep it's add alright take this pill" which is usually what my doctor does.
