Every since I was a kid my teachers had questioned my parents about whether or not I had this ADD, my parents common reply was "No, its just selective hearing". I've grown up since then believing that I was the one making the errors and that ADD was just an excuse. In high school I found it hard to concentrate on my studies, but I believed it to be just a case of not wanting to do them. After high school I joined the Navy (just like anyother kid for college payment) but constantly found myself in trouble, and a common statement was "you look like you got the deer in the head light look". I had been asked numerous times then if I had ADD. I was finally other than honorably discharged due to a pattern of misconduct. I've been trying to piece my life together since then by going to college, but like before I find it hard to concentrate on my work, my mind tends to wonder when it shouldnt. And know I am considering joining the Police Academy but am afraid that this will just be a repeat of the past. The last thing I want to do is day-dream about popsicles in the middle of a robbery.
Is there anything wrong with me?
