Follow-Up: This is very interesting. People have been telling me I have a short attention span for years. It takes me 12 hours to do 4 hours worth of work because I can't concentrate (I am self-employed). I also was tested (and found negative) for narcolepsy even though I have many of the symptoms. I have tried to go off sugar before but it's my CRUTCH! The doc just prescribed Ritalin for ADD, funny it seems also to be prescribed for narcolepsy. Is there some sort of link here? I can't even imagine going off sugar. I guess I need to pick a date not too far in the future and JUST DO IT!!
