One of the hardest things to describe to someone who doesnt have it or isnt close to anyone that has it. It can be overly diagnosed a lot. Since it is, the ones that really do have it get laughed off or people shrug it off when talked about. I dont how many times this has happened to me with friends, family, and co-workers to the point where I dont really talk about it anymore. They think everyone has it and it is a bs diagnosis because of their lack of knowledge of ADD, most people think its just the inability to focus or pay attention. Of course everyone gets like that and it doesnt mean you have it, ADD is so much more than that. This article does go into more what it feels like to have it (at least majority of this is what I experience everyday lol). But if you do know someone that has it, the best thing you can do for them (whomever they are to you) is to research it so you understand it and them better, listen to them and take them seriously, and dont ridicule them for doing things certain ways no matter how strange or how much slower it may be because that might be the only way they are able to get things accomplished... Okay vent over, had to get off my chest ☺
