    Adults suffer ADD at work - Column By Tammy Swift, Worthington Daily Globe, MN
    Titled “Crazy at work? It may just be office ADD,” it’s about the increased difficulties in being productive when you are constantly interrupted by e-mails, BlackBerries, text messages and cell/landline phones.

    According to this article, Dr. Ned Hallowell, an expert in Attention-Deficit Disorder, has seen a spike in grown adults experiencing ADD-style symptoms: difficulty focusing, inability to complete a project, anxiety and irritability.

    “The problem,” the article’s author writes, “is that our Gutenberg-era brains may not actually be capable of handling all this Bill Gates-era info.”
