> Well all I can give you is the explanation that my Doctor has given me because I am not the most intelligent. He said that ADD and ADHD are caused by an over-production of adrenaline in the body. He uses the betablockers to decrease the mass amounts of adrenaline by helping the body slow down its production. I hope that helps some. Like I said I'm not the brightest thing.

Thanks for the response. It made sense to me. I think you handled the science behind it quite well. It's probably just your depression or
ADD that isn't giving you enough credit!-K
