add triats but not add | ADHD Information

Hey Happycat, (love that handle)
     Pretty sure, yes -  Perhaps even some of your family had a mild form of ADD?
My family has so many strange traits that I am actually "the stable one"  I think that's a HOOT!  My Grandma called the police daily to report items that "they" had stolen.  Use to think that was funny as a kid, but, now I know she was paranoid- My dad is OCD and so is my 26 year old daughter.  Don't know how it fits together, but it does, so I'm pretty sure  your family's trait have something to do with it.

What think you, anybody else?

So I believe that my add comes from my mother’s maternal side of the family… I’m almost certain my grandmother has it, as do a couple of her sisters and some other relatives in the extended family.  Furthermore, though my sister’s never been diagnosed, I could bet everything I own that she’s add.  But here’s the thing…. Many people on my grandmother’s side are a bit quirky, and definitely have traits associated with add.  But that’s about it—just traits.
