Worry Too Much

By Rick Green,

Many adults who have ADHD, myself included, don’t feel we worry too much or are highly sensitive, anxious, moody, mercurial, easily upset, or quick to anger. We don’t feel that our emotions are a problem.

But talk to our friends and family. Hear what they say. (Awkward clearing of throat.)

Nothing Done

Recently I posted a poll on Patreon of possible topics for videos. And ‘Days I Get Nothing Done’ clearly struck a nerve. Yes, some days I surprise myself with how productive I am. And other days, like this day, not so much.

Do I have ADHD?

Take The Short Quiz

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed out, and can’t focus?

Then maybe you do…

But, in our experience, finding reliable, independent information on adult ADD / ADHD is difficult.  Especially online.  Everyone has a strong opinion on what ADHD is and whether it’s even a real disorder. The amount of misinformation is overwhelming, and often disheartening.

Doctors have been diagnosing what we now know as ADHD since the 1700’s.

There are thousands of studies, and new brain imaging technologies that show there is a real difference in how the ADHD brain works.  In fact, genetic researchers have identified over 20 genes associated with this mindset.

ADHD is neither a moral failing nor a character flaw–it’s an issue with low levels of certain brain chemicals.  About 4% of adults qualify as having ADHD,  but most ADD adults have no idea they have it. ADHD may be undermining your best efforts to enjoy and participate in many areas of your life.  Understand what it is, and how it affects adults is the key to taking the next steps on what to do about it.


What will I learn from the quiz?

  • Whether ADHD may be an issue for you
  • Which of the two main subtypes of ADHD you may fit into
  • Learn more about ADHD, and your next steps
Do I Have ADD?

This quiz is based on the international standards for diagnosing ADHD / ADD adults, set forth by the World Health Organization, The American Psychiatric Association and the Canadian Psychiatric Association.
