Why FREE?
The AD/HD applications here are free because they
can be useful to people like me.
I have some symptoms of ADD (or AD/HD), I've been having problems
concentrating and focusing on things. I memorize things that interest
me very easily and I often go out of my way to learn obscure facts. I
waste time. Yes, I'm a lazy man (to my parents and former girlfriends).
I can develop small computer applications, but I can't commit to making
long term projects.
What is AD/HD?
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) is
a neurobiological disorder.
We may all occasionally have difficulty paying attention. But for some
adults, the problem is so persistent that it interferes with their
daily lives at school, at work, and at home. If the AD/HD goes
untreated during adulthood, individuals may have trouble at work.
For the diagnosis of AD/HD, a complete medical evaluation should be
performed and vision or hearing deficits should be ruled out. Some
children has vision disorders that interfere with their ability to
learn... The symptoms mimic AD/HD.
I don't know if I really have ADD. Some symptoms attributed to ADD/ADHD
are also seen in children and adults with sensory integration
dysfunction and/or allergies. Some children and adults suspected of
having ADHD may actually need better rest (sleep apnea may be the
culprit).
My AD/HD Apps
I am forgetful and easily distracted, I constantly forget to pay the
bills, I forget appointments, I miss
deadlines. I took myself off the drugs (Adderall, Rytalin, Cylert) but
I develop some applications to cope with my issue:
AlarmJ
Use it to stop some activities. To Keep Water From Boiling Over. Take a
nap but don't miss a meeting.
