ADHD / ADD Support Group

I was diagnosed by a registered psychologist both when I was 10 and then in a second (extensive) psycho-educational assesment done more recently..

one thing that I have noticed is that adhd and depression run hand and hand once you start takeing the adhd hard and the depression just overcomes just about all things. I has made everything pretty hard.

I am a 38 year old tome boy that has ADHD, I was about 5 when I was diagnosed. There are several things you can do...you just need tobetter understand why and how

I enjoy my energy and feel it is an advantage over "normal" people. I get alot done and when I find something interesting I learn as much as possible.

Allot of people have ADD/ADHD and don't even know it. There are 7 diff kinds that respond to drugs differently.

It is amazing how scattered we all appeart to be, those of us who share the common thread that is ADD. Yet while we see to be scattered, the conditionor focus of "I am" seems to be a common thread. Just a thought.

ADHD ruined my life, the diagnosis hascorrected any hopes i have ever had of waking up and bweing normal. I am truy asloss for words as to how much disugst i have with myself someimtes in the morning. The power of self conviction keeps me going. That is really the lesson to learn from your experience as smeone who suffers from ADD, you must self-actualize and become more than the disease will allow you to be.
