Hello
This is my first time posting here and I am a little nervous, so here we go I am on an executive board of a non-profit that includes most of the big-wigs of my community, so the need to look like I'm normal is important. My question is does anyone else have a problem speaking out too much or out of turn? I tend to start to answer a question while the person is still talking or say something at innapropate times. I take 60mg of Ritalin through the day but I still struggle with all the issues of ADD. It does help me focus and work on projects.
Oh, I have one more question (sorry) Does anyone have a hard time expressing what they want to say. I have an idea or something that I clearly have in my head but cant speak the words. Any help or ideas would be so appreciated!!! Thank you!!!!

I have trouble with both those things and I'm not ADD, at least, I don't think I am. I haven't found an answer for dealing with the issues other than I try to listen more and talk less to keep me from interrupting. I also tend to want to finish people's sentences.

Yup, definitely on both counts.

All the time. My husband is constantly frustrated with me for interrupting him or talking over him in a conversation.

Sorry to hear...it sounds like a little bit anxiety to me. I'd maybe lower your Ritalin a bit, since 60mg is at the high end and could induce nervousness. Best of luck!
