You might consider AdderWorld. It's an online Social Network for people with ADHD/ADD, very similar to Facebook. It's really a fun place, with friendly people and lots of groups to get into. You can even have your own blog, and decorate your own page as you wish, share photos, etc. Give it a try.

Sounds like you're very motivated! Awesome!

I don't think I'd want to date another person with ADHD. I think we'd drive each other nuts.

Good luck

Hello there my name is Melissa , I read your blog & I absolutely love it . I myself have been ADD for 30 yrs , I myself suffered terrible struggles in elementry school & Middle school . It wasn't until I was reached high school , then became more aware of my ADD & how my brain worked , my strengths & weakinesses . I will say this , my family & how I grew up really made a major impact on me & my ADD , I grew up in a very tight, loving christian family , none of my family members ever treated me differently because of my ADD, no one ever told me that because of my ADD I couldn't go to collage & get a degree, ect ect . I know my mom is my biggest fan & has always told me that god made me ADD for a reason & not to listen to out side world . Now I will definately say that beining in a relationship with someone who is ADHD , when you are ADD is incredibly intense & can be stressful at times . The reason why I say this is because I have been with the love of my life for 9 1/2 yrs , he him self is ADHD , but does not take any kind of medication for it ( which i sometimes wish he would ) I think a stimulate in the morning would help him stay on task for the first part of the day . any way , my hubby is not only ADHD he is also OCD , which definately doesn't mix with my ADD , to say the least , MY ADD & His OCD don't make a good pair. Truth of the matter is, being someone who is ADD herself & in a relationship with someone who is ADHD , I will tell you that , our relationship can be very intense at times , my husband tends to easly get frustrated with stuff , which really frustrates me , simply because I don't get easly frustrated , I am more patient & take my time doing things , I also am pretty good at multi tasking , rather my husband takes for ever to get one simple task done , on top of that my husband has no concept of time , he is cronically late to everything . How ever even with all these little frustrations that we have , I still love him with all my heart , I completely understand what he is going through , simply because I have been there. I will say this , you have to really have a patient heart to being with someone who is ADD/ADHD , fact of the matter is being in a relatioship when you ADD/ADHD , makes normal relationship problems look like a piece of cake.

Ok, after looking at some of the posts and other websites I realize I didnt come up with adders (but it would have been cool if I did). I also now realize I was hyperfocusing on bloging when I wrote that post. When I wrote that Id like to find someone else with ADHD, I really think I was trying to say I want some one who understands me. I think that will only happen when I get to know someone very well. I really am excited about embraceing my ADHD, I still think it would be intresting going out on a date with a girl with ADD, I think we could have a Crazy/fun time. Not sure if it would be a good thing over a long period of time.

I read that two ADD people in a couple is a formula for disaster. Perhaps you are thinking that it would be crazy wild because it would be like no one's there to hold you down or be responsible or ??

I am not ADD but have had children and husbands that were. I can't even imagine how much fighting or lack of attention to detail there would be in a total ADD world. You make it sound like you want to go on an ADD binge relationship but you're smart enough to know that it could be trouble. Good luck!

There are great reasons to want to be with an ADDer but as others have pointed out it could be like the most fun ever until you both wind up in jail for doing something stupid, or have an ankle biter you were not planning on. By the same token life won't be a picnic with a non-ADDer either.

I am 52 married at 24. My Father, aunts, uncles, grandparents, siblings, nieces, nephews and 2 children have all been touched. My poor blessed wife has had to deal with all of us. It has not always been pretty. You will probably need someone to pull your feet back down to the ground and keep you on the straight and narrow. You will hate it!

There are lots of things to have in common with someone but like they say opposites attract and you tend to marry your mother. Keep that in mind.

With your personality you will be attracted to someone you can control and that finds you the bad boy. But when reality hits and they no longer want to take your shit, surprise sparks will fly.

No good answers, just lot's to manage. Take advantage of your personality just understand it can be overwhelming to others.

I find that ADHD can be an advantage at the very start because you may project yourself as a fun, unpredictable person. Later as relationship develops it becomes a problem as people want something stable
