ADD is no longer a diagnosis. Its ADHD exclusively now. Just a fun fact. Like manic depression is now Bi-polar I or Bipolar II. Also Asperger's is gone. Now it;s all Autism Spectrum disorder. You could fall high or low on the spectrum.
Just think how much fun (and $$$) you could have analyzing THIS group of misfits
!
Nothing wrong with that. Its only a problem when you cant function "normally." All of us have our own weirdness but we function just fine.
This. Most people never know about my “affliction” as I can keep a lid on it, and are shocked when I tell them but can then recall subtle hints.
That gives me some blackmail material for this coming week ... would a redneck bubblehead really do that?

We could have been rich, seriously, my dad had a cure for ADHD, he'd get an inch from my face and scream "PAY ATTENTION"
My mental health team strongly disagrees. In fact, I have melted down so much that Al Gore is making a documentary on me.
So you curse out loud, say whatever comes to mind, and make weird noises normally then?
Dad would scowl and almost whisper, "Do you need my full and undivided attention, or can I have yours?" That was scarier than anything Stephen King could dream up.
Yeah… mine sounded more like a growl.
That was one of the few really good parental decisions I ever made. My son rarely heard me cuss, and that was hard for me. The plus side was I could say "Damn it" in my normal tone and he knew how serious I was. We were sitting on opposite ends of the couch reviewing his report card and speeding ticket when I got really flustered ... I was starting to stand up and walk away and said "fuck this, you will do better" and it scared him enough that he stood up too. I looked at him with the evil eye and he said, "Dad I don't know why I stood up but if you will let me, I'll sit right back down".
Gak!!! C-cock s-suck-ker! Snaaaaarkkkgggrbbpml.
