    Re: Whatcha thinking about now?

    Hang on I'm about to find an explanation

    - - - Updated - - -

    Okay, here goes.

    ..Imagine your brain is like a television set. When you are doing a task, your brain is set to a specific channel. It's receiving information, processing that information, and being active. The channel doesn't change often, unless you want it to. People who have a set of neurological issues we call ADD/ADHD have a television whose channels flip randomly, especially if the channel it's on doesn't have enough information to receive and process. ADHD/ADD medications add a level of background noise to the televisions reception, so that even if the program that is currently on doesn't have enough information, the channel won't change because the television is getting additional information. A person with a neurotypical brain, will instead have their television channels change more quickly with the medication because they're getting too much information for the television to handle.

      Interesting...I myself am easily detracted. Why if I am cooking anything,I have to stay right there,and ignore ANY distraction. If some one comes to the door,I have to tell them,I can't talk right now until I finish what I am doing,cooking. If I get distracted,most likely something is going to get burnt. I have to explain to people not to break my concentration. Have been like this my whole life,so I kind of understand the idea.

        I get distracted really easily. I'm actually pretty content right now. I've never actually had adderall IR because my prescription is XR so it's released over time. My pills are coated in Polymer so it takes up to 4 hours to dissolve half of it then another 4 hours. This is so different. How are you doing?

          I manage these days,being older,I tend to take things slow. In my younger years I was what people call "Hell bent for leather" Drinking,doing drugs,and staying awake for like 4 days at a time,then crashing for 2 full days. I am always amazed I lasted to this ripe old age,I was kinda "live fast,die young,leave a nice looking corpse" kind of person. I really did not expect to make it past 30. But you know how life throws you a twist.

            I drink, but not too much. Alcohol is a de-inhibitor and makes your...."true" colors come out. And that can be very...interesting. My lack of conscience and other things can make me prone to certain behaviors under the influence. Lol. Though when I was younger I was not in control over myself and my parents could not discipline me at all. Taking my electronics, spanking me, talking to me and telling me my behavior was wrong didn't help. At all. I didn't care. I stole, fought, I was losing my shit everyday(rage). I was crying out of frustration. I was getting in trouble at school, too. I was literally losing my crap all the time. One day I just got really angry at home. I'm very anal about cleanliness, well, I was at that time when I did my chores. My chore was the bathroom and someone left a brush out on the sink and I just lost it. I threw the brush on the ground, I started crying and screaming, my sister said something smart to me and I threw the first lick. We started fighting and my mom had a talk with me.
            About a week later I made a deal with a girl to pay her money for something she had that I wanted. I took it, assured her I would pay. She came to my house, talked to my mother and my mom had enough and called the police on me.

            edit: Adding on, my childhood was pretty messed up too, though. My biological dad was a drug dealer and he was fighting with my mom, my granddad was a pimp(prob still is) and was dealing drugs. I was around a lot of women and my mom didn't have full custody over me because she had me so young.

              Anyone ever experience the senses cutting off during meditation or sleep paralysis? I had a sleep paralysis episode and during it I could not hear at all.

                A lot of people have adverse and contrary reactions to meds. As a bi polar person I can't just take an anti depressant. It tricks my brain to be happy and then to want to kill myself. I have to take a mood stabilizer. It's totally ass backwards, but brainz will be brainz.

                  Should I get a CT Scan if my migraine continues on Monday? It's not going away and it concerns me. I've had it for over a week. Lord and Lady help me.

                      Ask your doctor what he suggests. Might be muscular. Or a reaction to something - I have a friend who suddenly started reacting to chocolate and wine and a few other things. Doesn't have to be anything serious, but you should definitely see your doctor about it.

                            Thanks for the advice Iris. I saw my general physician on Wednesday and she gave me some pain pills for it which worked temporarily. She might suggest going to my neurologist, which I might have to do.

                              Adderall has me a bit fed up. I haven't slept since I woke up 10AM my time yesterday.
