ADHD
"I was always been a gifted student, but struggled to pick anything up in class.  My entire life I would go to class and walk out gaining nothing but a couple good day-dreams.  I thought I had ADD a very long time ago and asked my mom to have me checked; but being the proud mom she was her son couldn&#039;t have ADD. This year I started college and the same trend of gaining nothing from lectures remained.  I was sick of putting in the effort to go to class and getting nothing from it.  I was diagnosed last November and tried a few medications prior to Adderall XR.  This medication changed my college career, I can now go to class and follow my professor through the entire lecture. I no longer need to reread everything to understand it."
