It is a VERY strong belief of mine that I have ADD although I have never been officially tested. I would love to be tested but it is sooo expensive :-( Anyways, I am also bipolar. Before I was on medication, I would be addicted to going out drinking. Drinking slowed down my thoughts but would also perk me up. I have read that many people who have ADD do abuse alcohol. Another interesting thing is coffee. Coffee never gives me a jolt. Instead, it hels me focus and concentrate. They say that this is also a common reaction for those who have ADD.
