In Case You Were Wondering

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the formal name for what is known as Attention Deficit Disorder ( ADD ). You will see many variations on this definition throughout the web but its ADHD that's referred to in DSM IV I tend to refer to myself as an ADDer because as an adult I have of course shed the hyperactive part, right? I mean that fidgeting in your seat running around the school yard throwing the ball while you climb a tree stuff that's for kids right? Hmmm... maybe I still do all that but just in my car driving too fast drinking coffee, listening to the radio and talking on the cell, like all the other non-hyperactive adults.
