I would like to inform my audience about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. I was drawn to this topic because of my own struggle with ADHD as a child and now as an adult. I'm open to any way you want to take this...it could even be narrowed down to something like "Informing my audience about Living with ADHD." or something like that. I have struggled with ADHD since I was a child and have tried all the med's the shrinks pushed on me--- such as ritalin, adderall, etc..... I didn't like the effects these had on me they made me feel almost in a zombie like state...so I stopped taking them early on and just worked really hard going through school having to put more time into my schoolwork. The same goes today in my professional career and in college. I always have to put extra studying and preperation in everthing. It's very hard to stay focused and organize tasks and thoughts in my head. This could even not be about my own struggle with this disorder and just hit the main points staying away from my own experiences or a mix of both. This also doesn't have to be 3pgs it can be less if you choose.
