adhd and friends | ADHD Information

you should say your sorry and write them a little note on a little piece of paper, saying something  like "im really sorry i was mean, i didnt mean it, please dont be angry can we be freinds again?" and then write "love ... XXX" and then they'l think its cute and they'll forgive you. and then tell them you have add and say you dont mean to be nasty its part of your nature.

Dont give up on people if u fall out.

i do think that people with adhd are a lot loving than "normal" people. i act out wild but i'm still kinda nice under it all. yeah sure we do stupid things and make the same mistake over and over again but what's the harm in that lol.

i'm not on any meds but to keep at school work and an actual job i'll think i'll have to take something. otherwise i'll be wantin to be out chasin tornadoes or something really scary and excitin.

anyway i find someone adventure seekin really sexy....so i think my life long partner would preferably have adhd. by the way does anyone in here find it really hard not to annoy someone they find boring and not talkative sometimes. I would take something belong to them and run around the room with them chasin me. I just laught but I would feel bad after coz they would just call me a f**kin freak after it. lol...being made fun of has made me stronger though

I just wanted to know from anyone who might have had experiences with friends. I just find that I find the right friend and i just fool around with them mess silly stuff. LIke i might say insulting stuff in a silly harmless fashion and they don't want anything to do with me anymore. I don't mean anyharm and I do like them but they hate me then and im depressed. It's part of my hyperactive nature i guess anyone else the same way?I am as well....i know my mom hates it when I do that...it makes her mad...lol....its hard to control I know....do u take any meds at all??? I know that I take 10mg of Ritilan.....20mg of valporic acid...and 10mg of slow release ritlian...You wildlad have a very strong feelings....lol...I am like u...my bf right now is ADD and him and I get along real well...we are planning to get married and have kids.... but there are still doubts about that but we have been wit each other now for 6 months....pretty good...who knows maybe ya get a gf that has adhd...I find that if I date someone who is like me then its all good....as I always say dont let ADHD runin your life....

Jriles,

I was helping my mom and sister open a vintage clothing shop and I felt like I was going to to kill them (not literally) for being so unorganized and unproductive.  Me being the ADD-er should have been more understanding, but I know what you mean.

HI i havnt got any friends and dont really care, im 28yrs old and have 5 boys and 3 of them has adhd aswell as myself

i myself cant shut my mouth and always manage to hurt peoples feelings without meaning it, its part of adhd and if your friends cant understand that then its not worth having them is it? i wish you all the best x

I got lots of friends and they are all just laid back about everything. I don't like poeple who get easily offended or are super sensitive. I don't enjoy hanging out with them so see no reason why they would want to hang out with me. It's all in the types of people you decide to have relationships with.

I have many friends but I tend to think about things to much, and make false accusations towards them, and im just an all around pest, at times. I believe its because I'm so irritable on my meds. At times, it feels as if you are so focused, that when others arent as focused as you, it aggravates you. I can't explain it. does anyone else feel like this?

 

Focusing on reading is the hardest thing for me so if I am actually able to just kick back and read a magazine one day I get super pissed if anyone makes a noise or interrupts me.

Hi there wild

I do the same thing! I only got diagnosed this year and yeah, you have to tell them about the adhd and if they are decent they'll generally be ok. My best mate is deadset cool about it, she doesn't get angry if I run late, blurt out something or am not as good at things as her. She's going overseas but I will probably stay in touch with her my whole life!

Remember that you are unique and you have heaps to offer as a friend, even if you may not be a conventional one! Try to find kind people on the same wavelength as you
