In reality I just had no interest in school subjects because they were fucking boring. So I used that as an excuse, because like everyone else I'd rather kick paper around the room than read a poem and understand it's meaning.
See, at least he admits it. This is the case with most people diagnosed with these "conditions"
Especially in Britain.
Its highly over diagnosed, but that doesn't mean some people don't actually have it.... I have known A LOT of people diagnosed "ADD" that definitely were not, but I had ADD pretty bad as a kid and believe me it wasn't just wanting to goof off. I used to have to try like a motherfucker to any school work, it was definitely not normal... No matter how hard I tried to get work done I would constantly catch my self just sitting there staring out the window. It was a huge PITA during grade school, and to a lesser extent during high school.
Also had a friend with ADHD in high school... and that kid DEFINITELY had something.
70% of the people who "Have ADD" ARE full of shit. I know people would find out I did and be like "Oh I have that too" and it was fucking obvious they had nothing like me... But some of it is legit.
War Man... He is a fucking swimmer? That has nothing to do with ADD or ADHD... That's like saying "Oh he has ADHD but he can still run"....
