    Hi. Just stumbled upon the PBS documentary the other night while I was channel surfing! Got really interested as I have younger siblings that were diagnosed ADD years ago. For some bloody reason, I kept watching! As I continued to be not only entertained by the content, I did have certain feelings of shock mixed with a joyous sense of “omg….I have ADD or ADHD…..and it sounds like I will be ok!!” I have taken a number of online tests since watching the doc to see if I should take this serious or not. Never been so excited about “failing” a bunch of tests! I definitely possess many of the key indicators for ADD or ADHD (need to understand the difference yet…..just gotta get focused and do a little research……later! :)

    Love the site….love the humor….the journey continues!

    Wish me luck!

    What’s Next!?

    Failing? Heck, I ace almot every test I’ve ever taken – including the virtual test on this site! I answered them all YES, and apparently, that’s the correct answer! HA.

    Now gotta save up some money so I can afford to get an off-line diagnosis. It’s pretty certain with me – mother has it, son really has it, and I pass all the tests so easily, and if you ask anyone around me……….. they’d laugh and say “DUH”.

    Thanks for the replies Gents.

    I know i used the term “failing”….not likely the best choice, but certainly had the same experience on the virtual test also…..All YES!

    Great pic by the way ShaneG! “Squirrel!”
