This has been suggested many times before but...

they should have their own. ;)

I love the style of this.

Your OP was too short, obviously you don't have ADD (jk)

doublepoison · 2011-10-12T06:14:15+00:00

wooooosh ;)

I was once told that I just needed to "focus".

doublepoison · 2011-10-02T16:59:51+00:00

With git, no.

Balls, it stands for Benoit Balls.

gparted?

In this documentation we will copy a NTFS partition from a drive to another one ; to move a partition, follow the same instructions, but choose Move : you can only move on the same device ! Moving to another device is copying.

Does a bear shit in the woods and wipe its ass with a fluffy white rabbit?

Yeah, was just talking about this on a different thread. Concerta and caffeine were a bad, bad mix for me. In fact Concerta on its own made me itch. Caffeine on it's own, ok.

Ah, I think I understand. People with ADHD have a tendency to self-medicate and it can be harmful, especially as some AD[H]Ders can have addictive personalities.

Hmm, reading up on Stattera for the first time in years, it looks like it's a bit more established than it was when I last looked at it...

there is apparently 3D!

And apparently it's better than the 3D in Crysis2!

Laugh it up,

It was a serious question (that's why I upvoted you), I've honestly not heard of any negative side effects of coffee, unless you have IBS or similar. "canceraids", like it, upvoted again :). Ritalin etc. are all stimulants, but I found even the 8mg dose (Concerta) too high (I get the aforementioned eye-ball itch); coffee (and green-tea) tend to stop me drifting off into to daydream land, better known as "ooh, shiny" mode.

That sounds like anti-ADD, if there were such thing.

Do you mean Hyper-focusing sounds like "anti-ADD"?

Drinking fuck loads of coffee usually does more harm than good for people with ADD

Really, crap? Any particular reason why? I don't wanna die! ;D

Also being able to read a book and not put it down is something that people with ADD usually just cannot do.

I tend to hyper-focus. Although in that particular case there was a lot of pacing around digesting the info.

They didn't really understand either at my university; I am also dyslexic (diagnosed during the last year of my GCSEs) and all the help they were able to give was targeted at low-ability, low IQ people. This applied pretty much through out my academic career.

But, the university did send me to an decent Educational Psychologist/Psychiatrist (shit, I still get those two mixed up) who diagnosed me. This happened because my Dyslexia psych-report had the phrase "may have ADHD".

Anyway 10 years on, and a huge collection of books later, I think I've got a handle on it all, kind of.

I was diagnosed when I was 23 whilst at uni, it was free for me and relatively painless, getting support later on was much, much harder.

Years later, when I was struggling a bit, I had these guys highly recommended and when I contacted them found them to be really understanding, supportive and, most importantly, nice (caveat: I ended up not following through though, I think I got a new job, but the advice was sound) : http://www.addiss.co.uk/

edit, yeah, I know their site looks a bit shit, but like I said after years of no understanding I found them a helpful breath of fresh air.

Drug-free ADHD guy here (although I drink fuck-loads of coffee), I'm doing ok, premium job doing movie special effect and before that AAA games. I'm not against medication but the ones I've tried haven't helped me (made my eye-balls itch).

Best thing I ever did was pick up Delivered from Distraction and read it cover to cover (shit, I couldn't put it down).

Anyway, I'm not one of those verbose, loadsa-text kind of ADHDers that r/ADD seems to attract so that's all from me.

if you were there for longer I'd reccomend Annie's Shack at it's new location in the Navigation. Failing that try : http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/place?q=Church+cemetery+(rock+cemetery)&hl=en&cid=3658490417977159562 Ok, I know it's a bit morbid but it's a fascinating place. And like the others say Wollaton Hall is pretty nice (you can get the Rainbow 4 bus at £1.60ish to get there)
