ADHD comes with it's perks.

So today, I'm going to be honored for my ADHD. How exciting is that? I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was in first grade when my mom and my teacher Ms. Harrington knew that I something wasnt right. I wasn't like everyone else, I wasn't able to sit down and do homework....no no that was not me at all. I would be the one staring off into space or saw something more intresting then my homework. So you may think thats not that bad, but it was. In school I could never sit still for more than a minute, I was always walking around. I didn't do it on purpose I just could help myself. My mom originally thought that maybe I had something was wrong with my brain. Nope it's just ADHD. I was put on medication for it, once in the morning and once during the day. It worked....alittle but I was still hyper and still had trouble concentrating. years go by now and I started at a new school with new teachers. yeah they knew I had ADHD but, they actually helped. I was still hypers but then over the years i started to calm down a lot, but my concertation was still shot. Now I'm a senior, going to a great college and with a scholarship from CHADD. It just shows you even if you have ADHD you can still go far.
