I recently found out from my partner who has ADD that I am a likely candidate for ADD. In fact, the precise words were "you're worse than me, and I am on meds." The more I dug into the subject of my personal walls concerning ADD, I have come to realize I am mostly like to have it. Frankly, I am scared but also relieved to know I am not the only one who has their mind going a million miles a minute and can't seem to focus on one thing, often bouncing from one topic to another or even answering questions before people have a chance to ask the question in the first place.

I know the next step is to see my provider, but I am curious is medication the most likely treatment option? I have read a dozen or so small articles and am now attempting to read (given my short attention span, I'm not sure how successful I'll be) three such books on ADD. I have seen anything from coaching guides to hearing horror stories of lack-luster personalities after, forgive the term, medicated.

What are some of your experiences?

I seriously need to get in to be seen and quick!
