I didn't know that. Thank you.
I'll probably stick with ADD for most things though, because it seems like it's easier to say (barring my own qualifier for clarity) and people generally understand the distinction already. But this will be helpful in more technical circumstances, I imagine.
- _yb2s 2y agoNowadays the term ADD isn't even used casually by doctors or other people with ADHD... if someone told me they had ADD I would assume they were either self diagnosed, or diagnosed a long time ago and self treating, but not communicating with doctors or the ADHD community for at least a decade. The latter is important because there have been HUGE advances in practical advice on managing ADHD. Look at podcasts like "Hacking ADHD" and "How To ADHD."
