Adult ADHD 
Could you have this disorder?
For years, society thought only children suffered from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD/ADD), which affects about 20 million Americans. However, studies now show that ADHD isn't something children necessarily outgrow.

I wish I had seen this article when it was first published in 2000! If I had, the last 10 years of my life would have been very different. As it is, I was (finally) diagnosed with ADHD a couple of months ago. What a difference it makes to know why I struggle so with focus and time management and that there are treatments to help me! Thank you for this helpful article.

Thank you for bringing this to light, ESPECIALLY for Christian women. I was diagnosed a few years ago with adult ADHD, and it explained a lot of things. My daughter and I were diagnosed about the same time, and the one thing I would say is this - don't be too hard on yourself if you are, but PLEASE don't use it as an excuse not to try. You can STILL do anything you put your mind to, you just may have fewer things you can put your mind to at one time.

It is wonderful to read articles like this. I appreciate it. We do not have Add support groups around here, so I read what ever I can get my hands on. Thank you!
