I am trying to figure out if I have adult ADD. Along with other problems, changing my mind all the time is what really hurts my life. When I am dating someone one day I can be very happy even thing about spending the rest of my life with this woman, and the next minute she can do something so small and I don't want to be with her anymore. Also I have hobbies I am constantly changing in the same manner as woman. Did you deal with something similar when before being diagnosed with ADD?

So far no one is saying they are having this problem. Maybe you could bring it up in Relationships and Communication as a problem people can have, whether or not they also have ADD/ADHD.

I do have a hard time making decisions, especially big ones like moving in with my bf. I make pro's & con's lists but still it's like I'm putting off making the decision - procrastination is ADD related. I also have other mental health issues which he knows, so my biggest thing is do I really want to be stuck living with someone. What if I want to isolate ya know?

But other times I'm so damn impulsive, maybe mania related but also an ADD thing. Something seems like such a great idea and so fun at the time, then I'm looking back like what was I thinking.

So maybe knowing that in the back of my head, that I don't trust previous decisions, so I should be extra cautious and think things through carefully - now I'm seeing this circle pattern! Where's the balance? Ugh..
Thanks for this!
