SOme solid advice for you
if you truly are diagnosed with ADD then the best thing at this point is to visit a psychiatrist
i have struggled personally with ADD for 22 years against medication and sincerely wish i had not.
From some of the comments already posted on here was one of the main reasons that i never did get help because of the stigmatism that most ppl associate with something they do not consider real or problematic. For those of you out there that claim to "just grow up" im sorry but while your tough love approach probably means well it is the LAST thing needed we already feel ashamed that we cannot perform some functions which you take for granted, now your going to claim that these deficiencies dont exist? yeah thanx alot. There is nothing like that to make a person want to go and get the help they need. some people claim that it is merely a crutch i claim what good is a one legged man without a crutch. For those of you who cannot understand this situation it is unfortunate for the rest of use but soon you encounter situations similar to it yourself. everyone has skills and weaknesses learning to operate to peak efficiency within them is part of growing up. on a personal note there is a new adhd medication that you should look into that just came out STrattera which is getting rave reviews with the ADD world.
good luck

i just returned from a 8 month trip to israel and solved the same problem myself. i brought along a small agfe camera with regular alkaline batteries. it had internal storage for about 30 pictures and hooked up to any computer via usb. i would then download the drivers from wherever i was ( you could carry them on disk as well) and whenever i filled up i would post them to Ofoto.com for free this allowed me to send back an ongoing gallery of what i was doing.
