Just an A.D.D Moment

Ever since first grade I was diagnosed with A.D.D, attention deficit disorder, which means I have a hard time focusing and paying attention. This disorder makes learning and focusing in school difficult. I would always get bad grades and get in trouble for disrupting the class. In first grade I remember having these clothes pins with are names on them on this poster which went from green to yellow, to orange and red being the worst. They would start in the green but everytime you got in trouble you would have to move it down. One day I got in trouble 5 times in less then 15 minutes. So my teacher called my mom and confronted her about the possibility of me having a.d.d. The doctor then put me on adderall, a pill that was going to help me focus. Having to take this new pill my attitude and personality changed for the better. I am now very well organized and responsible. Also I have been on the A honor-roll ever since I started taking my adderall. I have over come and conquered my a.d.d.
