Does anyone else with ADD have this problem. When I fiddle with things I know little or nothing about, when they are broken, I seem to fix them. Now when I try and fix something I know alot about in general I usally end up braking it to a even worse extent.

Now where as the normal/different people without ADD do the complete oppsite thing to what I do which is fix things they know alot about, and things they know nothing about they don't touch or end up making it even worse. For example: when I was in year 8 the was a problem with the T.V and VCR so I set to work at fixing the VCR knowing nothing, and the kid fixing the T.V knew Nothing ( he was also ADD) about how to fix a T.V he ended up dropping the T.V which for some reason fixed it.

So I followed suit and dropped the VCR with out it's cover on and it broke. So I got in there and stated fiddling to find out if I could fix this. After an hour of fiddling I put the case back and Dada it worked and too this day I do not know how I fixed it.

Interesting. I like to take things apart to see what is inside.
I'm a terror at the store. Just put me in front of the appliances and I'll just start taking them apart.

More that one I've had to buy something out of sheer guilt - because it wouldn't even go back together well for a display model.

Yea I love taking things apart and looking what is in side them like raidos TVs and ya know. I just can't help it oh and I also like doing physical jobs like digging holes in the ground. Today I had a spade and was digging and filling in holes for no reason what so ever, and I think I am going to do it again tommorow I have got 2 hecters (5 Acres) of land to dig up they are only small holes.
