Hi, I'm 24 and i have had ADHD ever since i could remember.

I had major problems studying when i was young, even concentrating in things i loved to do was a major problem as my concentration would lapse as i got bored.

Now that i'm in the working world i've found my lack of attention span and concentration to severely affect my work and also other parts of my life like sports.

My concentration lapse even when i'm playing computer games something i have loved since i was a child and that has kept me from soaring into the heights of a professional gamer even now as i'm playing sports i lapse half way during a match and give away easy points.

Least to say i hate paperwork and make tons of easy and obvious mistakes. Jump from idea to idea and have to make a tremendous effort just to get organized.

I havent had any treatment since young so i was wondering if anybody has similar problems or severe restlessness, lack of concentration and attention time span.

And the worst part is the restlessness, i've lost count of how many stupid acts i've done when i've felt restless, even simple stuff like not sleeping at all before going to work, etc.

Dude im in the exact same boat....

Yes, that's all quite familiar.
Diet and especially exercise will alleviate the situation somewhat but will never cure it completely.
But if it really gets in the way of your life, you may consider treatment.

Tak,

Least to say i hate paperwork and make tons of easy and obvious mistakes. Jump from idea to idea and have to make a tremendous effort just to get organized.

You just described my experiences in the workplace to the letter.

I'm curious, take a look at this...

all i gotta say is get in line buddy lol.. nah i already been pro in counter strike , tekken tag & starcraft but i feel ya

i had the same problem untill i was diagnosed and placed on meds and it has improved...

That described me exactly. I always had trouble concentrating on school, but I was intelligent enough to get by with good grades. Even down to lacking concentration while playing video games. I went to my doc, got diagnosed and have been on meds. It's helped a ton.

And the worst part is the restlessness, i've lost count of how many stupid acts i've done when i've felt restless, even simple stuff like not sleeping at all before going to work, etc.

I had whole entire marriage that were the result of simply wanting some stimulation! it ended up costing me like $10,000 probably
