I was first diagnosed with ADHD when I was 37 years old. It was then that the floodgates of understanding and awareness finally opened up for me! However, it did not take me that long to figure out that I wasn’t like normal folk. I knew it the entire time (that I was not normal), I just tried my best to pretend I was like everyone else (don’t most of us?), but I never felt that I was quite like everyone else. From time to time I met other people like me and I always had the strong urge to start a club, it took a while, but I eventually did start one www.adderworld.ning.com be sure to join the club! I guess the strongest indication that I always had ADHD was that I rarely, if ever, passed a grade in school. It is a poignant story with an uplifting conclusion, which I have told once or twice before; primarily in my bestselling book One Boy’s Struggle: A Memoir – Surviving Life with Undiagnosed ADD. Have you read it? Please do. I am also the author of one of the most downloaded ADHD eBooks in history: 10 Things I Hate about ADHD if you have not read it yet, you can get yourself a free copy by joining our free eBooks group on ADDer World the ADHD social network click here to join. Because I am releasing an updated, extended version with 10 more things, 10 Things I Hate about ADHD the free eBook will not be available much longer. The new book will soon be available as a Kindle download. I also have several other popular free eBooks available.
Due to my struggles and experiences, I have a deep interest in helping others find help for issues which could be related to ADHD. Having lived most of my life with undiagnosed ADD I know firsthand how problematic and hard it can be to have extreme difficulties and not know why, much less how to overcome them or in many cases, just live with them. One Boy’s Struggle: A Memoir tells of my struggles and why diagnosis was helpful and liberating, what’s more is I describe what could have helped and what has helped, through it all, what I have learned. I believe the ways I have found to overcome can help others, like you or someone you know. I also explain how I have used and continue to use my ADDer traits to prevail, succeed and, most importantly, find happiness and yes, even satisfaction.

I truly believe ADDers are wonderful and creative people with fantastic attributes and it’s about time we stand up and use the positives to bring us ever forward to be happy and successful. If you feel the same way, or at least, want to feel the same way, then I think you will find great benefit in reading what I have to say. I view it this way: We have ADHD and there is no cure, we might as well find the best ways for each of us to live with it and overcome anyway. Just because we have ADHD doesn’t mean we are doomed to failure or that we are ‘lesser’ than anyone else. We are much, much better than we sometimes think we are! Indeed, we are all uniquely special in our own individual ways, even with ADHD.
You are not alone. No, never alone. And that’s the brilliant reality of ADHD.
