I think its scary how close our situations are, my father passed away 3 years ago and he was the only one that truely got who I am, my mother will support me no matter what, and the rest of the people that i have told about the disorder have pretty much shrugged it off as something that is made up. I think most people think it is some kind of excuse for bad behaviour or something, I have been taking ritalin for some time now and it is helping greatly, I don’t ever discuss ADD with anyone but my doctors and my wife (both of which can see the improvement) I find it sad that most of us feel that we don’t have anyone to talk to, but i am happy to read so many posts that remind me of situations that I have been in, it lets me know I am not alone.
