Seattle is the only place I’ve ever considered living life out.
I think Kurt Cobain had way too much of an impact when I was younger, and he’s not even from Seattle.



prove the ADHD doesn't exist.
Untitled 2 years ago

Although I believe that ADHD exists to a certain extent, I think too many people use this illness as an excuse. I think it’s more of a personality type where some people are more hyper and having a harder time to focus than some people. Just because you display some of the symptoms in certain situations, doens’t mean you have ADHD. You can only diagnose it if the behaviour is present at all times. Hell, I don’t have ADHD, and the drug they use to treat ADHD has the same affect on me as it does on people who claim to have ADHD. It makes me able to focus on one task at a time. Does this mean I have ADHD? No.
I feel that in the western society nurtures ADD into its citizens. We’re used to things being fast paced, we’re used to multi-tasking because there is so much to do in our busy lives. Writing an essay may be extremely difficult for some people because that takes time, and taking time to do one thing isn’t taught to us every single day. Does it mean that they have ADHD. No.
