Quick fixes for ADD ADHD

Quick fixes for ADD ADHD
on: September 7, 2007 by: Bryan Hutchinson 1 Comment ...

Dear fellow Adders, Quick fixes for ADD and ADHD just don’t work. There is no cure for ADD or ADHD and there is no single perfect way for dealing with it. Scientists are still trying to figure out the complexities of our learning and attention disorder and it’s turning out that although some chemistry can be pinpointed, this disorder is very complex. Think about it, sincerely, if the world’s best scientists are researching and studying ADD/ADHD and they have no cure or perfect remedy, then I personally would not trust anyone who offers such. It is from the experiences

Is ADD ADHD over Diagnosed? Part 1

Is ADD ADHD over Diagnosed? Part 1
on: September 5, 2007 by: Bryan Hutchinson 1 Comment ...

This is what I think: I think ADD/ADHD is “-under-“diagnosed. I think there are far, far more suffers out there that have no idea why they act and think the way they do and what’s worse is that many of those suffers might have already been explained what ADD/ADHD is, but would rather suffer than admit they have such a thing. So taboo! So can’t be! Oh no, not me, can’t be—stigmas are powerful things. It can be even worse than that, what if a child is diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and the parents can’t bring themselves to agree with the diagnosis and the poor kid grows up without proper assistance? Unfortunately,

Fish oil for ADD or ADHD?

Fish oil for ADD or ADHD?
on: September 2, 2007 by: Bryan Hutchinson 2 Comments ...

Is fish oil helpful for those who have ADD or ADHD? From personal experiences I believe the answer is yes! My experiences with fish oil are limited and although I have taken fish oil supplements it has been only in very small doses and short terms. The reason I am hesitant is because I am allergic to Mercury and I have serious concerns about the toxicity of fish oils. I have been assured that certain fish oils are cleared of contaminants, but I have a nervous nature over such claims. That’s just me and probably part of my ADD. Go figure!

Adults with ADD or ADHD, related to an Adder, in a relationship with an Adder or friends of an Adder, will find this story of substantial use and insight. Without further a due, here is the synopsis:

Superman Returns, the movie, is the epitome of every Adder’s dream! As Adders we dream more than we do most anything else. We dream when we are walking, talking, eating and sleeping. Inherently, dreaming is our favorite past time, all the time. For any non-Adder reading this article you will finally have insight into what we dream of the most.

© Bryan L. Hutchinson Positive Thinking part4 post1:         Potential part 2 If you have visited Seth’s Blog then I am sure you can see why I think he has an Adder trait or two. Usually, only an Adder can create stuff so interesting that it becomes mesmerizing to another Adder. Consider Da Vinci. Did you notice Seth’s book with the naked plastic dolls on the cover? Exactly… go back and find it… I will wait. I am not saying that Seth is an Adder. Let’s get that clear. I am saying that what he creates is very interesting to the point that it is captivating, even to Adders. That is a major reason he is so successful. Adders are extremely creative. That is no secret. And concerning our creative nature, I am not telling you anything you haven’t heard before, or what you don’t already know. Since we agree that […]

Why? What for? What’s the use?
on: August 27, 2007 by: Bryan Hutchinson 3 Comments ...

As much as I have improved, as far as I have come—I am not yet flawless and a dose of reality reminds me that neither I, nor anyone else, ever will be. These feelings pass.  Nah, I never actually thought I was flawless—far from it. I know I have flaws, difficulties, struggles and, yes, sadness. Who doesn’t? It is not perpetual; these are just moments, moments which can be amazing forces of devastation if we let them and without proper care these moments can indeed become long-lasting.
