How did the tests work? I've been professionally tested for ADD, and the "tests" were just the very same questionnaires for ADD that you can find on the Internet. And surprise! The diagnosis was the same one that I would have come up, or that anyone who knows me would have come up with. I.e., yes.

I would switch between TV and work, letting one distract me from the other.

I struggled with music for a while too. Ambient stuff like Tycho, The Mattson 2 and Blue Sky Black Death really helped at the outset.

Really like these music selects. Thanks for posting them.

I can't work with a TV on either. And music with lyrics is hard to program to as well. Ambient music is ok, I usually find it helps get me into the zone. I thought that was pretty normal though...
