my boyfriend has brought up the idea of him being add or adhd. we went to a website with a questionnaire to see if you think you are but he doesnt answer the questions honestly and gives himself too much credit in certain areas. it happens almost everyday that he will tell me a story then get side tracked and remember 20 minutes later that he was talking. he interupts me a lot and has outbursts of anger. he plays games like madden and ncaa and starts new "legacies" or whatever the hell theyre called because he gets bored or aggravated with them after a week or so. and when he took the test i would ask him one of the questions and he would say no when in my mind im thinking "you do that all the time!" and if i tell him he comes up with some excuse as to why its not what they mean in the question. he did pretty well in high school but did horrible in college. i also think that he has some kind of anxiety disorder but he refuses to go to the doctor (mostly because he was dropped from his parents insurance once he graduated and hasnt gotten any yet). but some of the things he flips out about gets very aggravating after a while. does this sound like add?

when i was in elementary school my teachers thought i was add because i was acting out in class. couldnt have had anything to do with the fact that i was 7 and my parents were splitting up. they sent someone into my classroom to observe me and tried to force feed me ridlin. now im in college with a 4.0 in zoology and i want to go back and find my teachers and shove it in their faces lol
