Advantages of ADD in a High-Tech Career

[KTorak]

I'd probably be diagnosed with a small bit of ADD. As for meds, I probably wouldnt take them. But I do exhibit alot of the typical "traits" if you call them. It drives me crazy to be in classes that don't interest me, but even if I barely pay attention, I'll pull a stong A in it. I also always have to be doing something. Normally I'm at my PC playing a game, chatting with a friend, or reading up on forums I belong to...I rarely just sit down and watch a movie or a TV show...I'll get up and go do something else half way through. Also, if i'm doing something...I'm completely involved and you have to drag me away from it. I just can't stop working on something or reading something part of the way through. My parents will bug me for an hour until I finally finish something and go get dinner.

The little test thing said it's likely that I have ADD...go figure.
