I know I have a rather large reputation for being an attention whore, but this is all because of my ADHD.
I used to have it only my profile, ADHD & Aspergers. So if you think I'm an attention whore, google it fagz.

ADHD is such a bullshit affliction. All it is is a lazy excuse for a couple of parents that won't discipline their kids. The fact that one knows that they have an affliction, and uses it as an excuse basically says that you don't have it in the first place.

Anyone care to review my flash submission? Free responses : D

ADHD is the attention whore "disease."

I put disease in quotations because ADHD is purely fictional. Doctors tell parents that their kids have it so they can charge them for pills, and parents believe it because they want their child to be special, even if it's because there is something wrong with them. Kids go along with it to get attention from doctors, their parents, their teachers and other kids... All in all, it's one big circle jerk over nothing but puberty.

Are you people trying to say that ADHD doesn't exist & it's only so that doctors can make money?
That's just hypocritical.

All of you who are saying ADHD does not exist are blowing shit out of your asses.

Yes, some people are wrongly diagnosed with it due to insufficient parenting, but there are people out there who actually have it. My sister has it and you can clearly tell that there's something up. She's 18, yet she acts like she's my age.

Also, certain drugs, like Ritalin, bring these people with ADHD down so that they can act normally. If they didn't have ADHD, these drugs would make them extremely hyper, seeing as they're amphetamines.

I actually have a friend who has it. But I've never seen him be a twat and start attention seeking because he knows he can't use ADHD as an excuse.

From the wiki article:

It typically presents itself during childhood, and is characterized by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity, as well as forgetfulness, poor impulse control or impulsivity, and distractibility.

Doesn't say anything about annoying people on the internet by trying to get attention from them all the time. ;P

Seriously, though, I can't see the link between being an attention whore and having ADHD, but then I'm not a doctor or anything, so whatever. Stop making excuses.

That's just hypocritical.

How exactly is it hypocritical unless everyone who has that opinion actually has ADHD themselves...? Do you even know what 'hypocritical 'means?

Ritalin never helped me, I once got fucked off because my mum wouldn't drive across town to get my memory card. I ended up trashing my room quite literally.
I was about 12 at the time.

You are, but it's understandable. You must have absolutely no friends...

Just kidding.

It gets annoying when you make up a profile that 'isn't' an alt and have conversations with yourself. That's just sad man.

You are an attention whore, but so far Burnzoid has impressed me even more by his attention whoring.

Well, Ritalin was an example because it's the only ADHD drug I know how to spell. :I

Yeah, my sister had the same problems with Ritalin. She also got horribly addicted to it. Then she switched so some other meds and she was fine.

That's where you say one thing should be done but don't do it yourself.
They act like they know all about ADHD, despite clearly knowing nothing.

So how long ago did you go to the doctor and get diagnosed with ADHD and Aspergers?

You know what you wanna do with that, right? You wanna put a banging donk on it!

I don't think I ever had a problem with addiction, I was glad to be off. I hated it.
