I guess this will be a short one, since the information is already in the title. I was diagnosed with ADD. I got pills for it. First Ritalin, then Concerta (long-acting version of the same stuff) – they helped, especially in the beginning. They stopped my caffeine addiction. But, gradually, I needed more and more of them. In the end, I had maxed out my prescription dosage and my short attention span was back to where it started.
Today, I stopped taking my pills. I no longer notice a difference.
Is ADD a symptom of awakening? No idea. I like to think so.
