[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 252553, member: 47"] There is a test for ADD/ADHD called a TOVA Test. Its a computer program that not only can, in conjunction with the doctor, diagnosis ADD/ADHD, but it also can pick up other problems. I had one a few years ago, and confirmed I had ADHD, a learning disability in math, and possible petit mal seizures (and I thought I was just being blond) but I chose not to take medications. I am totally able to hyper focus at work - its anything at home I have the problem with - the least little bit of stress and I go brain dead and would forget my head if it wasn't attached. And if my home life crosses over into work, like having to make a doctor appointment, take SO somewhere, take difficult child somewhere, even getting a home related phone call its all over and it takes me a while to get in my groove again. I can't function writing stuff down - its too overwhelming for me to look at all that stuff on a piece of paper. If I am at a meeting, I start to doodle if I have to take notes. But I am an auditory learner and keep what I need to do in my head - any paper involved- forget it. Marcie [/QUOTE]
