Okay whenever someone says "wowww you have ADD or ADHD" I actually like it. It makes me feel sporadic and random :) is this normal?

  • No, being told that isn't a compliment. Its their way of saying you cant focus on anything... to pay attention, & calm down.

  • Having adhd is actually pretty cool! I have adhd and I take Adderall XR for it everyday when I can. If someone puts you down for it, screw them they don't deserve your attention.

  • Maybe it makes you feel special, and like people are paying more attention to you :) I kinda know how you feel. I have OCD, and I almost like it when people acknowlegde it.

  • Maybe you think your friends percieve you as really fun to be around, but it could also mean you're a little too wild and need to calm down a bit.

    Also, this is slightly off-topic, but I should mention that I actually have ADHD-1, so I'm not hyperactive, I just can't pay attention to anything. It's a disorder, not something you should want. It really does make life difficult!

  • Do you have ADHD? If so try Conerta or Ritalin.
