I was wondering, is it more common for children to develop ADS if they have an alcoholic parent? I think i once read something about it.
Does anyoneelse have an alcoholic parent?

I have read that ADS patients more often develop an addiction and
or obsessive compulsive-disorders to make sure they did not do mistakes (which happens to ADS patients easier). Does anyone else have the same problem?

I never really did well in high school, because i couldnt pay attention and really did not like to study.
Only in the last 3 years before graduation i made a commitment to study and be better. I improved a lot.
Still, I had to do so much more work than class mates, because most of my friends just listened in class and did not have to study everything from books afterwards. Additionally, when I studied from the book, i had difficulty to keep an overview of the real important things and outlines. so i just studied EVERYTHING, every details, while not being aware of the whole coherance.
Which of course, gave some results, but not same as when you just understand the whole concept.
I did not have a hard time with languages though and did well there.
I was the worst in maths, because i couldn´t keep any numbers in mind.

Does anyone know these type of difficulties?

I also had a lot of daydreams that I wasn´t aware of.

Also, I read ADS kids are more likely to get singled out and bullied in school? Is this true for anyone else? Because it is for me.

Finally, I always felt somewhat different from everyone else and I think it might have to do with ADS.

I would be very interested to know if others can relate to one or more ADS-coherent symptoms!!
