ThermoNukePanda Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 what's adult add?Attention Deficit Disorder, otherwise known in my opinion as the most misdiagnosed and abused "disorder" in the US. I have strong feelings about it. I'm not saying that it doesn't exist, but too many doctors just hand out pills to people for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Kev Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yeah I googled it and read a small article .. basically it seemed to say if you are bored with doing something that isn't exciting you have ADD. I would suggest self medication *mod edit* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let a doctor tell you that you need to take a pill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eminutia Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Seriously GG, what would you do if you found out you had ADD? I agree with everyone else, it's just an excuse to use prescription amphetamines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spawn622 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I'd start with your general doctor. Tell him/her your concerns and what's going on. If he/she thinks you're showing the signs of Adult ADD, they can refer you to a psychologist like MWB said. At least at that point you could have your concerns validated or at least put your mind at ease some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
