So who here was diagnosed with ADD?

I remember that was the big thing when I was about 14 or 15...everyone got diagnosed with ADD. I saw a psychiatrist and he asked me one question..."If you were taking a test in a silent room and someone behind you dropped a pencil would you turn around and look?". I said yes so therefore I had ADD. I got Ritalin and that shit was like speed (without the addiction part). Accurate diagnosis, huh? So let's hear it...who was diagnosed (correctly or incorrectly) with ADD or ADHD?

At this point I think ADD should stand for "Another Dumb Doctor"

The problem is that the diagnosis is so subjective. It varies from doctor to doctor. I can honestly say I don't have ADD...I've got generalized anxiety which is what makes me a little spacey, twitchy, and out of it sometimes. But for years I was told I DID have it because some dipshit doctor told me I did.

My sister had ADHD as a kid and was on meds for years. i can still remember the first day that she had to take the Ritalin (?) pill. God...that was the worst day ever. Mom in the kitchen tryin to shove a pill down a 6 year olds throat.....after that my sis would just take the damn thing.

I've been hearing a lot about adult ADD now. I think I heard something like 5 (or it might have been 20...I can't remember which) percent of adults have ADD. And most of them are women. There was an article about it in one of the Cosmopolitians this year. Interesting article....and according to the warning signs list, I have it. I do have a major problem paying attention to certain things....and I always feel like a jackass asking people to repeat what they said because I was thinking about something else.
