Me too, short term atleast. Some of mine is due to my motorcycle crash way back when. I lost some of my memory and a couple years when I was younger I cant remember, but the docs seem to say that ADD makes you mind run through so many things you may not remember things well. I can have something in my hand and then turn around and completely forget I had it. Maybe we are just getting old...

Yeah, I even went to the pscho doc and took their tests. They had me sit down at a computer and answer about 500 questions (similar to the SF psych test) where many were the same but worded differently.

The irony is that forcing myself to sit still and focus on something (like 500 frikkin questions) is almost the most uncomfortable thing in the world for me.

Anyhow, they've started me on Concerta. Don't really feel the effects yet. Maybe it's because of all of the Espresso I drink.
How long you been taking it Pat? Takes about 6-8 weeks to feel the effects and even then you should just feel calmer is about all. Nothing drastic that you really notice.

Car Info: heavy, stock power, slow, perfect
i got some signs consistent w/ ADD according to the test.

i very very very often miss turnoffs when talking w/ GF/passenger.
i can be less than a mile away, talk about the turnoff and then proceed to miss it. weird shiz.

Maybe 2 weeks. I had been on Buproprion for about 6 months before, but didn't like it.

Paxil is recommended for obsessive people so I will probably try that one. Still need to get to the doc and do the really thorough testing like you went through.
