Is there a good site that has referral information on doctors who treat
ADD/ADHD?
Would be helpful if anyone knew a psychiatrist or psychologist, or both, in
Phoenix Metro area, of Arizona?

"We conclude, based on these as well as other similar findings, that
ADHD is not overtreated, and that many, if not most children with ADHD
are not receiving adequate treatment."

| How drastic is the change? Aaron 20:36:20 |
| | I was just diagnosed with ADD at age 25. I'm curious what type of drug
I will be prescribed and how drastic of a change will be noticeable in
my ability to stay focused and how large of an overall lifestyle change
this leads to. Anyone have any success stories? or horror stories? I'd
like to know what I'm getting myself into.

| Winner: Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest Sosueme 02:41:32 |
| | By RON HARRIS, Associated Press Writer
Tue Jul 11, 8:17 AM ET
SAN FRANCISCO - A retired mechanical designer with a penchant for poor
prose took a tired detective novel scene and made it even worse,
earning him top honors in San Jose State University's annual
Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest for bad writing.
ADVERTISEMENT
Jim Guigli of Carmichael submitted 64 entries into the contest. The
judges were most impressed, or revolted perhaps, by his passage about a
comely woman who walks into a detective's office.
"Detective Bart Lasiter was in his office studying the light from his
one small window falling on his super burrito when the door swung open
to reveal a woman whose body said you've had your last burrito for a
while, whose face said angels did exist, and whose eyes said she could
make you dig your own grave and lick the shovel clean," Guigli wrote.
"The judges were impressed by his appalling powers of invention," said
Scott Rice, a professor in SJSU's Department of English and Comparative
Literature. He has organized the bad writing contest since its
inception in 1982.
Guigli will receive "a pittance" for his winning entry, a bit of cash
he said he may put toward the purchase of a motor boat. His work for
the contest represents a sampling of a career that never quite
developed for him.
"At one time I thought I wanted to write to detective novels," Guigli
told the Associated Press Monday. "I never got a good start on it."
His bad start was to be celebrated Tuesday, when the contest results
were to be officially announced by Rice.
The contest is named for Edward George Bulwer-Lytton, whose 1830 novel
"Paul Clifford" began with the oft-mocked, "It was a dark and stormy
night."

| What Drugs are Prescribed for ADD? Aaron 00:02:35 |
| | I'm aware of only Adderall.
What other drugs are commonly prescribed? How do their effects compare
to Adderall and what are the typical dosages of them?
I posted this elsewhere, but I was just pprescribed Adderall but don't
like the idea of taking a habit forming drug. I'm just curious what
other options are available and how effective they are.
Thanks.
