Does ADD get worse and then sometimes better? lately my typing skills have gone for bad to worse. They have never been good ,but lately I just am having a real hard time. Like maybe with times of stress? I feel so stupid asking this. I have never been diagnosed . I have many signs and symptoms though. I can't afford to see a Dr. I know we can not diagnose just need some Ideas. Thanks been real stressed lately, I find myself just pressing the wrong keys a lot more than usual. Thanks this may not be the right place to post this?

Hi i am in the same boat as you. I know i have ADD but never been diagnosed. i show almost all signs and symptoms. i am 23 and it get harder as you get old and start a career. if you are still in school i think you see a doctor as soon as you can. its really hard living this way as an adult. but to answer you question i would say yes. Sometimes i have a harder time typing and i also have a reading and writing problem. that gets really bad sometimes. where it take me a while just to read a sentence. also i think stress can have lot to do with it cause stress can make anyone have troubles doing anything. well i hope this help and good luck to you
Thanks for this!

When I have other things stealing energy, my normal functioning will start to suffer. For me I think normal things just take much energy so when something adds on, something must break.

For me, I get disorganized and almost confused.
Thanks for this!

I have moments where I can't type to save my life. When my mind feels like it's in a thousand places all at once, it can get hard to do anything except take a nap or go for a walk or bike ride.

I also see that I am not my mind at all. I see my mind as a powerful tool but one with some quirks if I get it involved in tasks that I'm not really interested in.

I love my gifts and respect my limits and life is good...
