Myths about ADHD [link]

Apparently this friend has been getting ostracized and harassed for having ADHD. Which is weird to me because most people with ADHD I've met are well received because they're generally fun to be around and spontaneous.

I've also heard some people think that those with ADHD simply don't care or weren't raised correctly . Also untrue, they care very much and many were raised as "correctly" as you and I.

ADHD doesn't mean the individual is obnoxious, you simply perceive them that way because you're probably a stick in the mud and "too cool" to be random. Tsh, who wants that?

People with ADHD simply have a harder time focusing on one subject for very long, or sitting still for long periods of time.
"Everyone has occasional difficulty sitting still, paying attention, or controlling impulsive behavior. For some children and adults, however, the problem is so pervasive and persistent that it interferes with their daily lives at home, at school, at work, and in social settings. " - CHADD
