As IM increases, actions actually appear to slow down since the mind advances ahead of events, improving anticipation, clear thinking and judgment. The best description of the opposite situation is a person with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder who feels, to quote Dr. Edward Hallowell, MD author of Driven to Distraction , and leading clinician, speaker and author, "As if he is standing in the middle of a busy intersection will all of the traffic lights green." Dr. Hallowell said, � The Interactive Metronome® is spectacularly helpful . It is one of the most promising developments with non-medication of ADHD that's come along in a long while�This really is solid, extremely helpful non-medication (intervention) not only for ADHD but for mental functioning in general .�
