ADHD and ADD

Ok here is a good one. Many people everday are tested for ADD and ADHD
and do not know that ritalin may not be the awnser.
Many ADD and ADHD can get along with out ritilan and can function just like anyone else.
The topic of ADD and ADHD is still in debate for its existance!
Now how ADD and ADHD work. Many people may think that ADHD and ADD are when your mind just goes real fast and you take ritilan to slow it down.
Well that is false information!

To tell you the truth. Ritilan is a stimulant drug. It makes the mind go faster so the chemicals in your head that are not going fast enough speed up. That way your able to focus with more effort!
Well here is a kicker. Does Ritilan actually help in any way?!

Well that is also debatable. Ritilan helps some children but it does not help all. It actually debatable if Ritilan actually works.S
The drug also can have side effects to many for me to menchion. You can build a tolarance to it which makes you need a higher dose of it. This medicane is like any other medicane. It is said that it is dangerouse to take it over a long periods of time!
I myself am ADD and I do show many signs of it, but if I really try real hard enough, I can function like anyone else. It is still a bit hard but I can do it.
One last info on ADD and ADHD. It is known for those people to not be able to focus! That is a lie! We can focus but on things we like. As me and the game Zelda. I can spend hours on it for a year if i wanted to with out the care in the world whats happening out side(I beat the game 4 times already and now i quit. I didnt play it for a year only for 2 months. I can beat the game in less then a day) It is almost like doing the same thing everday with out ever becoming board of it. So anyone else ADD and ADHD
