Anybody ever have people tag you as "stupid" and "slow"?
I think I have ADD or something...
I have some friends that think I am a sheer genius! They hail my insights!
Then, there are those who think I'm stupid, and it's like it bothers them. And that bothers me alot. Just because I make simple mistakes does not make me stupid. I will admit that sometimes I do feel fuckin slow, dont know if its the drugs or what.. But I remember in highschool, i was reading through this girls agenda... and this girl had a big thing for me appearantly.. it read something like, "Oh.. (me) is soooo cute! But he's so stupid! LOL". Not the first time I have been aware of some peoples thoughts on me.
wtf? Am I stupid? If people see me as "stupid" does it make me so? Even though some see me as wise? I can do math, I can write well (dismiss this whole internet writing shpeal, it doesnt count!). I understand things well, I crack some funny shit here and there. People admire my knowledge on certain subjects..
I dont know man.. it's starting to eat me up.. I think I need to be consistent in my approach to everything.
I KNOW that I can accomplish anything I put my mind to. I fuckin read books on the universe. When I shroom i do nothing but meditate on the realness. At work I think about einsteins relativity theories. Like last night I took a piss in the toilet and noticed that as the stream of piss hit the water, ripples of water moved outward, but bubbles with some distance from the point where my piss landed would actualy begin to move towards the centre point. I was like hm.. very interesting.
I workout a few times a week, and people are always impressed by my physique, which was built mostly through knowledge more than anything else.
So? Anybody have this issue?
My ex-girlfriend hated the fact that at times I would become "unattentive".. staring off into space. It pissed her off and said I had ADD and needed to get on some meds for that shit. She said one of her friends has ADD and when she got on the meds it was a 180 degree turn around for the better.
I feel like theres a barrier between my mind and my ability to express myself how I am inside.
I will also add that if I rail some good blow, I seem to be able to do things faster aswell as articulate myself how I should. I seem to only be able to impress people with my words when I'm "in the zone" or if it's something I'm very passionate about.

ADD is an invented illness, it doesn't exist. It might as well be just who you are and you shouldn't be bothered by what others think.

Obviously ADD is not an illness.
Everybody has different levels of attentiveness. I have a horrible attention span.
But the world wants me to smarten up so fuck it.. i needs to get me some ritalin!

OK since I can edit my post.. I'll put it this way.
Some people think I'm highly wise and intelligent.
Some people think I'm retarded.
What do I do?

Don't take ritalin first of all. Work on your focus. There are lots of mind exercises you can do to improve your attention and memory. Try focusing on things which you find it difficult to do so. Start for example with five minute/day and gradually get to half an hour or even an hour/day. Keep a journal.
