Yay to resigning up at mental health center! Sometimes those tricky therapists come up with ideas that we never would have thought of ourselves, and it's soooo helpful.
I think a lot of non-Adders (or undiagnosed Adders like your dad, lol, and mi...
Progress is happening-working on my 2 minute ADD elevator speech, will post when I have a draft that looks promising. My parents seem to understand why it is so important to me that I get to explain myself my way at my pace (after I repeated that ...
Write as you please; poetry, short stories or tips and tricks that you'd like to share. But no novels please.
Here's a place to show our beloved Lizard how much she means to us as she battles a brain tumor...
You're welcome! I also find that exercise (karate, aikido, parkour, ballroom dancing, running) helps and I feel much better now that my diet has a lot fewer carbs. Ritalin and I are also BFF :)
What convinced me that I have ADD was reading the sy...
First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you do something VERY nice for yourself today...And thanks for taking the time to respond. You have hit on several MORE issues that I am facing-personal (intimate) relationships. I have made some pretty impulsi...
Thanks Gary-
My family has been through a lot and I think you are right on-they don;t want to think I am another one of the SICK ones, I am just too competent (guess who they lean on in a crisis, and we have'em! And boy am I good at handling them...

I think part of presenting ADD to any person that is non-ADD is always a challenge! But, you have to be careful who your audience is and how passionate you may be about the subject. I think in general there has been a lot of progess made for peopl...
Lisa,
I am a corporate trainer/program developer and looking into similar areas-found a studio here in Atlanta that produces music like you are talking about, I THINK... tell me more about didgeridoo, links?
Also, I used to listen to a product ...
Dana,
Thank you so much for replying and sharing your thoughts. I guess I didnt phrase my question well, and that is a huge part of my problem! I am seeking insight into the NON-ADD mind, to try and uncover what barriers exist between us, in tryin...

- Hotlanta - lived near there about 12 years ago, nice place. Single mom is my situation also, but I am dealing with 2 girls, who knows if that is better or worse? Mine also have ADD so it can be interesting here in our house! Look forward to sharing the single parent stories with you. See ya.
