I can't relate to the extreme that you and the other poster are affected by this. I do get lost in myself. It's always a problem when driving. I'm also overwhelmed by ping-ponging thoughts. When I'm bored, I trace the ping-ponging thoughts back to the origin. I've never realized this before... I've never liked Target, and now I believe it is because of all that glaring white. And I would rather go to several smaller stores than do 1-stop shopping at a Walmart Supercenter. All those people swarming around, as removed from me as a colony of ants.
Anyways, I wrote for one reason. To share the difference Strattera made on some of these symptoms. I could keep to one line of thought without being lost in it. People became interesting to me. I started up conversations and started making friends. I smiled at everyone and they smiled back.
My son has ADHD and I was surprised to realize I had ADD symptoms also.
Good luck in your search.
