ADD Consults

You know you have ADD when you have misplaced your coffee four times in the same morning, and each time it's in a different cup.

That makes me feel better! I usually don't have more than 2 misplaced coffee mugs in a given morning.

Hi all, I'm new to this forum. I think I have one you haven't heard recently.

I left my home one day to do some shopping. I start the car, realized I forgot something in the house, left the car running, ran in, got distracted in the kitchen and started emptying the dishwasher. Then I went upstairs for something, after puttering around I decided to take a shower. As I'm shampooing my hair, I remember that the car is still running in the driveway.

Crazy, huh?

When it is contagious. Where ever I seem to go, The gas station computer has a glitch, Kmarts pc, just shut off, Went to Big Lots today, and she couldnt seem to count the $$ out of the drawer until after 3 times and all of a sudden people around me have "brain farts". I just tell them all in the midst of their frustration, Its not you , its me, I have severe, contagious ADD !

That is EXACTLY how it is. The only difference between that lady and me, is that I move through my house faster and with far less calm! Laugh

Mary, too funny!

Make sure you don't diagnose yourself by just an online quiz, though. Get evaluated in person by a mental health specialist.

Mary, whew. Ok- I'm glad you saw a professional. You wouldn't believe how many self-diagnose via websites! Glad you like my book but sorry it's been hard getting onto the website!
