Can anyone understand me | ADHD Information

I have lived with ADHD for as long as I can remember. I am now in 9th grade and friends never understand me and get very frustrated with me. Sometimes I just don't understand what they are trying to tell me but they can't take it anymore and leave me for good. I have this guy friend and he used to be like my best friend but now he gets so annoyed by me and I don't want to lose him too. He is actually the first person in my whole life who actually understands me. Please someone help me out. Can someone please undestand where I am coming from.   ash062638578.6246412037Dear Ash,

Being an ADDer myself, I definitely know where you are coming from.. You see, people with ADD have some traits which are pleasant if given in small doses, and also occascionally. But when the behavior is persistant, it gets on other people's nerves pretty fast....So, if your guy friend really can understand this much, your friendship will be strong and long lasting...On your part, you must try your best to tone down on the traits as much as you can...

Hope it helps
