<p>No, I haven’t seen anyone on speed.</p>
<p>You’re right that most people will never get rid of the effects of ADD. Maybe I’m not being fair, I’ve had unusual experiences so maybe I’ve developed an unnatural distrust of authority. I went to a special needs high school, and I met a lot of people who had minor problems that where taken too seriously. Sometimes the authorities at that school would invent problems. For example they wrote in report about me that I can’t recognize facial expressions. I was really mad about that because there is no evidence that I can’t understand facial expressions. No tests or anything where done, they just wrote it down and suddenly it became a “fact.” They think that because they’re teachers, they can say anything they want. My sister went to a different special needs school, but she has had a much more difficult life than I have. One teacher wrote that my sister “hears voices” in her IEP. Again, there was no evidence. My sister is autistic, and autistic people don’t normally hallucinate. It was a huge fight for my parents to get the voices thing off of my sister’s IEP.</p>
