The Ground Rules

I think that it's safe to say that the name of this blog is fairly self-explanatory; I'm an adult living with ADD.

Well, looks like I just lost about half of you.

For those who don't know, ADD stands or Attention Deficit Disorder and is the adult or grown-up version of ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder). Sometimes, it's called 'Adult ADHD' or 'AADD' - but it's all the same thing. Really.

Aaaaaaaand there goes the other half of you
.

For the record, this is not going to be some sort of scientific-based info dump. Will there be some info dumped here, either in quoted text or via link? Sure. But the majority of the entries I'll be putting up here will be about me living day-to-day with my ADD.

Sometimes, there will be photos. Sometimes, there will be some ranting. Sometimes, I'll just be throwing things out there (a sure sign that I may need to change my scrip). Hopefully, through all of this, I'll be able to figure some things out about this condition, and about myself.

So, feel free to drop a note, if you want.

(NOTE: I'm not a doctor - this is something that I'll be most likely repeating on this site a number of times. I'm just an 40-year-old guy who's like you - yes, you, in the back there - and who's got half a brain in his head and knows how to use it. Again, I'M NOT A DOCTOR, nor do I play one on television, so don't come crying or screaming, 'But YOU said-" Sorry, but it just doesn't work that way.)
