I was just reading through some posts and I have noticed that we all have similarities and we can relate to one another, at the same time we are different.

eg: One poster said that he can speak very well and has high vocab. I on the other hand can't speak very well, or write very well. But we are similar in the fact that we can't hold the attention to read and sometimes not understand what we are reading.

It is interesting to me. Just a thought, I guess the environment we grew up in or live in now has a lot to do with the way we are the same, and different with the similar dissorder (whether is be ADD or ADHD).

I might be wrong, but just they way I am thinking.

I know that this might be obvious to some people here, but i am still learning.

Just wanted to share my thoughts on this. If you want to share your thoughts on this be my guest:)

Again hope this makes some sense.

ADHD is a hetrogenious disorder. That means there are differences between the members in the that grouping. The one common thing here is the lack of impulse control in it's many...many different forms.

Grade A you make perfect sense, and your observations are accurate. There are several things that account for the differences seen amongst a population that has the same condition.

A brief list of a few things that effect how one expresses their ADD.

Temperament

Personality

Experiences-

Severity

Sub-type

Attitude
