Hi Craig,

Sounds like you're sure about the depression, especially with the great response you get from the ADs. I believe it's relatively common for people with ADD to have a caffeine addiction - I do! As for concentrating, I know, with my ADD, that if something interests me (and I'm very lucky to have so many interests) than I can concentrate intensely; and have been this far, like you, very successful in most of my endevours (excuse spelling - another symptom of ADD). If something doesn't really interest me, this is when the concentration difficulties with ADD show themselves. Small talk would be a good example of losing concentration, I don't/can't do it. (I'm thinking inside, 'why is this person making so much useless noise?)

What I've noticed about depression and concentration is that it doesn't matter what my interest level is, I just can't seem to concentrate. I hope I've helped Craig. There are probably some great sites on ADHD. And I'm sure there are varying degrees of the disorder. Writing's a great profession! Janice.

Just read that bit about cocaine. Very good clue, cocaine made me feel organized, calm and extroverted.
