Now he is thinking he wants to start taking it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While there’s some kids that can benefit greatly from medication, Europe’s best medical practices approach to adhd is family therapy. Sometimes what’s needed is for the family to make a few adjustments to their parenting approach. Medication can truly turn some kids around. Europe prescribes 3% of what America does for adhd Edited August 29, 2018 by ActionfigureJoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humans are not built to multitask and research shows that the human species is just bad at multitasking. Even people who think they're good at multitasking suck at it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never known a multitasker that does as well as they’ve convinced themselves. But they sure do wrap a lot of their ego up into it. It seems they get more emotional satisfaction by doing a lot if things at once rather than being truly productive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going down on the old lady, squeezing her tits, thinking about the frosty beer in the cooler, and grilling steaks, while keeping an eye on the score of the game, at the same time! That's multitasking! Shit, I wonder how much ice is left in the cooler. I should scoot over to the store and grab some more. Been meaning to do an oil change on the truck too, I'll hit Napa on the way home. Don't want to burn the steaks, I'll take one for the road, on the way to the bar to watch the end of the game. Brilliant ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wtf Yes it's real, and it's treatable with the right meds. Not everyone responds to the same meds the same way. What works for one kid, doesn't necessarily work for the next kid.

Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted August 29, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 29, 2018 MY ex bus partner had it bigly. His wife was just the opposite. She would wrap up the loose ends he left everywhere. Together they were quite successful. The reason many believe it not real is because they have it and people with it tend to hang out with others who have it. So they see it as " its just life" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
