Adderall Addiction: The Last All-Nighter

Has anyone tried Yoga and/or meditation for ADD? I think it might be helpful...I am distracted easily and often. However, I find breathing exercises help me focus.

Yoga and meditation may benefit anyone. There is considerable interest in mindfulness techniques for ADD treatment. Search for 'mindfulness ADHD'.

Yeah, I do these things on my "vacation" days. It helps, but it's hard for me to do it for a long time. Usually I end up walking around after a few minutes.

I never took any amphetamines but I find myself much more focused on weeks I spend at least 10m meditating.
