:rolleyes: Hi,
I have dyslexia and pretty sure ADD, thou that has never been Dx. I know this cause I have 3 teens with ADD and I fit right in there with all the charactoristics. I see no point in getting a confirmed Dx at this point in my life. No this is not denial, it is that hey, regardless, I manage just fine and would see the only point in getting a Dx is to medicate and I do not need that at this point.

INSOMNIA, I have not heard anyone else mention that nasty or wonderful word,...depending on my mood!!! I have insomnia really badly some time. I normally require 4 hours of sleep but can get by on like 2 hours. I do however crash every once in a while. Does that happen to others, Its kinda weird. I can feel my whole body begin to shut down. This happens after days of almost no sleep.
Anyways,....fellow insomniacs, and I assume there are a few here,....LOL, you can find a group of us late nite in the yahoo ADD chat room laughing, chilling, listening to tunes, and trying to unwind. If you cannot sleep, maybe I will see you there.

I love the fact that I have insomnia. :D

Until I found the right medication for my ADD, I was a long-time Insomniac!

Now I still stay up late, but wake up feeling refreshed in the morning (for the most part) :)

Some nights I just can't shut my mind down. I can be tired, but I just lie in bed unable to do anything about it.

LATELY I've been having horrible insommnia....due to anxiety....and anxiety due to all the changes going on in my life....and anticipation of disaster....or things not working out....It's awful....Of course it's all in my head....Disaster never really happens...but I can do a number on myself in my head...

When my life is routine, boring and dull -- I sleep okay....

So I guess maybe I'm not REALLY OCD...as the doctors think...perhaps only when there's something to be OCD about:D
