what is the difference between adhd and bipolar? Is it possible to be miss diagnosed with adhd and actually have bipolar? what does adhd look like when grieving the death of someone close with complications? Can this be a time to get adhd mixed up with bipolar?

I'd like to have a short version of your book, concerning your chilhood and adolescence as an ADDer...

I was wondering if you received my last message in wich I asked you my first question for my book about the gift of ADHD ? Because I didn't receive a response... I don't blame you for that, it's just a noticing...

Do you mind if I ask you my question again ? This is :

How did you live your young years, as an ADDer child and teenager ? What problems/difficulties did you meet so ?

I suppose you are very busy and I understand that, but tell me just if you received this message and when you think you will answer to it.

Have a great day !

Véronique

P. S. : I like very much the picture that comes with your last post ! I even put it on the screen of my computer ! It's my muse !

I'm working on a new one, right now LOL... I'll let you know when it's up :) How's everything with you and Joan?

At 3:32am on November 12, 2009, Betsy Davenport said…: Well Bryan, that is not helpful. However, if you don't mind both me and my clone hanging out here, we will. Though right now it looks like I came in alone...

I signed up recently for two other ning groups, so I imagine that is the source for the confusion. ONE sign in for ALL groups would be, ah, too simple, I guess.

Thanks,
Betsy

At 9:09am on November 7, 2009, Ariane Benefit said…: Bryan, you are so right! I totally agree...I would not my comments rated. Most ADDers are very sensitive to any kind of judgement or rejection. Even though at the same time, our curiosity is piqued by all the possibilities of how people would rate us. I'm glad you "Just said NO to ratings!" Simpler is almost always better. : )

At 3:09pm on November 6, 2009, Ariane Benefit said…: You're most welcome! So what did you decide? Is there anything you get that is so great it is worth the potential downsides? : )

At 2:54pm on November 6, 2009, Ariane Benefit said…: Great questions Bryan...In my world...I'm constantly fighting the "shiny new object" syndrome...I try to do a cost benefit analysis....what do I get by doing this? What do my readers get? is it really worth the time and trouble of another thing to manage and pay attention to? Unless there is a really big payoff for myself and my readers - JUST SAY NO!

NO has become one of my favorite stress and attention mgt techniques...I used to hate saying no...now I see it as empowering.

So the real question is not what do I think...but what's the real benefit? I didn't hear you give any real benefits at all.

Does this help?

A-

At 10:30am on November 6, 2009, Ariane Benefit said…: Thanks Bryan! Yours too! I finally got my other profile merged with this one and fixed the email addresses so I get your announcements. Feels good to have that ToDo off my back!

At 2:09pm on November 5, 2009, Véronique St-Martin said…: Hello Bryan !

I know you since a good moment, now, through your messages and your web site and I really appreciate what you do for all of us. I was wondering if you could personnally help me...

As you maybe know it, I'm presently writing a book about the gift of ADHD and I'm searching testimonies of people who can see the positive things in this "trouble", through their life experience. I already have some testimonies but I'd like to have some more... I thought you maybe could give me your testimony... I know you had written a book about your life but I'd like prefer to ask you directly my questions by mail (I'm more at ease in English written than spoken). I only have 4-5 questions...

You're free to agree or not but it could be very appreciate...

Give me your news,

Regards,
Véronique

Thanks for the welcome. I have been very busy so I plan on catching up on reading all those interesting posts! I am in the process of getting together ADD/ADHD information and the right names of guests to have for the Dr Oz show. Wondering if that is something you would feel comfortable doing with your book. What professional do you feel is following the best treatment plan for ADD/ADHD?
I need to get ready for a dinner event now.
Thank you for kindly directing me to this lifeline
Best, Janet MR

At 7:40pm on October 16, 2009, DANA said…: Hi Bryan! Just dropping by to let you know that I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED your post called, "Impulsiveness meets Passion meets Infatuation meets Love?"

If this were a real movie, you would have had a standing ovation!
Well done, Bryan!
