Yeah im curios too. Ive never known anyone with it. I never paid attention in school and got in trouble for it a lot, but I sure dont have it. How do you know if someone has it or they are like me and just dont give a shit?

It is very real. But sometimes overdiagnosed. Most kids have problems paying attention to some degree and some doctors/parents find it only too easy to slap the lablel ADD on them and then medicate them....
I know someone who has adult ADD as part of another condition.

it seems like they are finding desies for all sorts of normal behavure. did you know one of the warning signs of OCD is putting your shoes under your bed every night, and focusing on school work.

Well OCD is another one that truly is a disorder. But there is a huge difference between being particular and, say, taking a shower every 5 minutes because otherwise you’re afraid you’re not clean (extreme example).

ADD is real, I have it, and Depression, but the real question is, Is depression a sickness, or a thought that change you completley? ADD is real, i cant pay attention alot of the time, and now im on Concerta. If it were not real, and it was to only pedel drugs, then the doctors would have been sued MANY years ago.

I really don’t know why it’s called ADD when most people who have it, don’t have the patience to ADD
