Has abyone here tried the Reading Genius program by Ed Strachar? What's it like? Do you know anything about his other programs?

Fanx.

Oh, by the way, mine was 458 words per minute and 100% percent comprehension. And I've read A LOT! According to a questionaire I did I've got ADD, though, so I'm not too unhappy about it after all.

Actually, I've done a few tests for me having ADD, and I've tested positive for having it on nearly every one of them. And yet - no one would ever suspect! My belief on ADD, is that ADD, or ADHD itself does not exist, and is rather: a mixed intepretation of two different disorders, and ADD is not one disorder by itself.

You'll often find that many kids who have been designated to have ADD, are often supposed to have a few, or possibly one other disorder as well. A person I know has OCD, and ADHD. (Obsessive compulsive disorder, and attention dephisate hyperactive disorder.)

I think that those who specialize in that area of psychology, and science itself need to look and think deeper on that subject. The personalities, symptoms, and statistics on a person's body who is designated with ADD have been known by surveys and studies to vary greatly.

PhotoReading and other mental excersises known to help those with dyslexia, you'll find, can often help those who have been designated as having ADD. Stuff like QiGong, PR, the Brain Gym books, etc, have been known to have interesting affects.
