There is no ADD, it is all ADHD

The terminology has evolved since Brian was diagnosed with ADD during his childhood. What was once called Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is now recognized as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). There are three types:

ADHD, Inattentive Type: Predominantly inattentive symptoms. Struggles with inattention, but does not struggle with hyperactivity and impulsivity. 

ADHD, Hyperactive/Impulsive Type: Predominantly hyperactive/impulsive symptoms. Does not struggle with inattention, but struggles with hyperactivity/impulsivity. 

ADHD, Combined Type: A mix of both inattentive and hyperactive/impulsive symptoms. Struggles with both inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity. 

If you or someone you know is struggling with ADHD, consider seeking professional assessment and support. Speaking from personal experience, the treatments for ADHD can be a complete game changer, and your journey should start with a psychological evaluation.
