I think ADD/ADHD like many other mental disorders still has a stigma attached.

Since being in university I was diagnosed with depression and now I have been diagnosed

with ADHD /inattentive sub-type. It has changed my perspective on what has happened in the

past.

I never have had a problem talking about depression (except in some work situations) and now

that the diagnosis has changed I suspect I will do the same thing.
