there's no doubt about it, most of my musician
friends that lean to the "art" side joke about
having A.D.D.
there's verified cases that administering ritalin to A.D.D.
patients stripped them of their creativity.
in one case, the ability to play the piano vanished completely.
i was one of those kids that surely would've been
on ritalin today.
i couldn't pass a math class to save my life,
became my high school's 1st art major.
some studies are suggesting that what we're calling
A.D.D.(not to be confused w/ "A.D.H.D.")
may well be a personality trait of the "artist/inventor" (A.I.),
citing thomas edison as a prime example.
