Anyone with ADHD?

Hey I have ADHD and although im not very hyperactive I do have trouble concentrating. I have always had a hard time going to sleep at night because my brain is so active.

Are there any others out there with ADHD? I also dont take medication for it as in my case it is not so serious. But recently I have been thinknig of taking ritallin or some other type of medication. A friend said it helped them to sleep at night so that would be great but I dont want it to effect my dreams.

ADHD is relatively common so there must be a few of you out there on ritallin or similar drugs and I would love to hear what your thoughts are.

personally, i think that a term like "attention deficit hyperactive disorder" is something that physicians use to prescribe medicine unnecessarily. mostly out of laziness i assume. in a world full of so much beauty and information and death and ugliness who wouldnt be adhd?? with the state of affairs people that arent "adhd" are probably the ones to worry about. i say, grow up and accomplish what it is that you would like to. fuck the medications. use your "illness" to your benefit my friend.

Yea iv always wanted to do it without medication but the thing is I am very easily distracted and im studying at the moment and it makes it very difficult to learn and retain the information. Also help sleeping at night would be GREAT! But yea I am kinda against it too, I dont realy want to be medicated if its going to make me act different or change who I am.

try tryptophan it is natural, and helps you sleep
