It's really super helpful to read and learn about ADHD. The more we understand ADHD and how we each individually manifest the symptoms, the better prepared we are to overcome the difficult symptoms of ADHD. I don't think ADHD is ALL BAD, and certainly not if we can learn to control and harness it's power. The way our ADHD brains assimilate and organize input from our lives is what sets us apart from those who do not have ADHD. Ever notice we seem to be constantly on a different wavelength altogether? I certainly have come to realize that in the two years since I was first diagnosed.
I'm a very fast and avid reader, but not as...
efficient, per se, at writing.
Little do people know that it sometimes takes me so long to write a board post that the session logs out---and sometimes logs out more than once!
It takes me a bit longer to write quality words and organized thoughts so that it doesn't come out like gobbledeeguk. Even then, I don't always reach that goal!

That's okay---practice makes perfect, and the more practice I get at anything the better I get. Most of us ADHD folks have problems in communicating on some level. Something to do with inprocessing and outprocessing information in a logical and coherent manner I think. It would probably help me if I could devote my attention span to one thing at a time more often, but I'm working on that.

P.S.: Please post whatever ADHD interesting articles/info. that you have. That sort of support is invaluable, especially to those just diagnosed and/or just beginning treatment with our ADHD.
