Have I Got ADD?

I can sympathise. When computers were on the horizon manufactuers proclaimed paper had had its day, and our forests saved. I think I use more A4 sheets now than I did on the old typewriter. Changes are much easier to make, of course, but there's not been any reduction in paper use.
slightly off thread: my theory for what its worth is that with the introduction of tip-ex type correction fluid, the paper mill owners got scared that the market would slump, they therefore invented the PC, in a very crafty way that made it look like IBM had created this milestone device, the simple exercise of gifting a number of shares in the mills to a certain Billy Bob Gates guaranteed the continued demand for paper, and then some. 
Not sure if this is a serious thread but both my boys have ADHD. They say the father is the carryer. I had a lot of problems when i was younger without the benefit of medication or diagnosis but i seem to have sorted it myself.
Often, still; I have trouble with stuff that involves responsibility. typically understanding complicated bills and letters. There used to be a time when i was frightened to open bills etc. It was like everything on the page would just glare at me and i would have to read every line several times to understand it.
Still, i'm much better now...honest
I think there is a lot to be said for self medicating in milder cases. I just wish my boys mother wasn't so keen to shove Rittalin down their throats all the time.
