[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he's having trouble following through on making plans, the issue isn't ADD - he's just not that into you.  I have ADD, and so does my son.  We are both medicated for it.  We can follow through and concentrate on things that are of interest to us.  In fact, we hyperfocus on them.  Things that are of less interest, however, are difficult to focus on. [/quote]

I love how people say it's so cool that you can block out the rest of the world and all other responsibilities in order to focus on only one thing that interests you. 
Like we're all Elon Musk or Steve Jobs ADHD'ers. If you just leave us alone and do everything for us, we'll invent some cool stuff.

Thank goodness they were born in a modern society where a tiger wouldn't eat them up whilst they fiddle on their iPhone dreaming up their next $5B R&D project and ignore their wife, kids and employees. [/quote]

DP. I don’t think ADHD pp the as saying it’s “cool” that she can hyperfocus, or that she feels somehow entitled to it. To me, her post reads as a simple statement of fact.[/quote]
