Adults with ADD/ADHD
A few things you should know first:
- YES you can still have it when you are an adult
- YES I have been officially diagnosed with ADHD through the proper battery of tests
- YES A very large percentage of those with ADD/ADHD are highly intelligent
I never “outgrew” it. I just developed a LOT of coping skills to work around it
(i can barely add/subtract two two-digit numbers in my head, but give me
a piece of paper, and I can do advanced Calculus - go figure)
Despite how we may act on occasion, we are smart. We just do/say dumb things sometimes.
This is an excellent book on the topic:
