Made an appointment at the county mental health center for me and my son! You have to do this orientation and jump through a bunch of hoops. But finnally made the stinken little call. My appointment is not till the 18th, I don't know my sons yet.

He prompted me today when we were talking about his inability to put more into his 15 minute practicing.
He said "I already told you I will get help for my ADD."
His Dad may cause a little strife towards me over it. oh well.

I am getting full blown hyper lately. And my legs wiggle like crazy at rehearsals. And not in rhythm ever.
Plus I am sooo scattered.

And can not slow down untill 4 in the morn. I am not tired then either. but suffer the next day for lack of sleep

The up side is I can vaccume the whole house clean tiolets sinks and shake rugs, and dishes in about 25 minutes!

I have been very busy and haven't had a chance to catch up lately.
Got to go and run around now in circles.
I just realised I made a monumental move and hadn't told anyone!

JB, That's great!

Taking action is one of the best medicines around.

Hey, I've had the hyper leg problem all of my life. I started taking 1500mg of L-Tyrosine today)among other things) based on info on the brainplace.com website. I haven't had the leg shake all day.

There may be non-prescription things that you can do to help as well. Check it out.

Keep up the good work!

JB - can you come clean my apartment? :D

Also, as FB said, try the Tyrosine - it works for me too. (I take 1000mg with my other vites.)

Thanks, everyone!
I am next week, just a start. My son went for his first yesterday.
I do a lot of aminos, the leg wiggling seems alittle more under controll.

I had my apointment today. I was just with a counselor mostly doing paperwork. He said "sure sounds like add to me"
The horrible part is my appointment with a phycologist isn't till august! Geeezzz!!!!!!!!! What can I do, any other way I can't afford it.
Anyway I console myself with "a least I got the ball rolling".
I will be the first in generations on both sides of my family! I think that's cool. It may get a few other people moving. I actually may have a cousin who will beat me to it. Lately he has been deeply pondering his life.
Anyway, AUGUST!!! BOO HOO!!
