i have add and i used it to my advantage. like playing sports, where my mind could wander fast due to the fact pace i had to think anyway. try finding some up beat paced activities. for school, add can effect you a lot if it doesn't go away. adderall is better than ritilin to take..but you should wait it out before getting some. unless it is that horrible that you're miserable all day because you can't concentrate on anything..maybe medicine is the way to go. but try to find the activities where it's okay to let your mind wander.
maybe cutting down on sugars and caffeine could help..if you're energetic, your add will apply more.

You have sat for how long at the computer doing research? You play video games?
You dont have add you just like neat stuff and you need to get your butt in gear and pay attention to the dull stuff just like the rest of us.
Have you tried talking to your doctor about food additives that you should avoid. My partner has a son that has the same problem. We had him for 3 weeks at Christmas, we did not feed him anything that had additives or preservatives in it if we could help it, we even got him to eat wholemeal bread instead of white. The difference was amazing. I hope that this will give you another line of questioning for your doctor. Good luck
