I feel as if I have had ADD since I was a child, but lately the symptoms have been crippling. I had always zoned out completely in elementary and high school. I have had friends think I am upset with or ignoring them when they are talking simply because I am paying no attention. I have always made good grades as a result of motivation, but lately its becoming more and more difficult. I am a chemical engineering student in college, and the focus to complete my tasks has been abysmal.
