My husband ahas ADD and before Adderall he was a mess. Couldn't focus for long periods of time and moody as hell. He is much better now and a lot more pleasant to be around.
My cousin who is 5 months older than me has adhd. We grew up together. We were in the same kindergarten class and so on. It only affected me slightly, I would remember we would play and he could only play something for a very short time, and I do think my attention span was and still is affected by it.
During school I was my cousins keeper. We always had our classes together so that I could help him get through the assignments. He isn't mentally retarded in any way he just couldn't concentrate and stay on task and so I was elected to help him through it. We are now 25 years old, and aren't as close as we once were but we still talk a few times a week and he is my son's godfather.
If it wasn't for his adhd I wouldn't have the relationship I do have with him, we were the best of friends for the first 18 years of our lives.
