ADD vs ADHD

When it comes to attention disorders, two terms that often get mixed up are Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). While they share some similarities, they are distinct conditions with different symptoms and characteristics. This article will help you understand the key differences between ADD and ADHD, how they affect daily life, and how they can be managed.

When it comes to attention disorders, two terms that often get mixed up are Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). While they share some similarities, they are distinct conditions with different symptoms and characteristics. This article will help you understand the key differences between ADD and ADHD, how they affect daily life, and how they can be managed.

What is ADD?

ADD, or Attention Deficit Disorder, is an outdated term that was previously used to describe people who had trouble focusing or staying on task without the hyperactivity aspect. Individuals with ADD may experience issues with concentration, forgetfulness, and disorganization but do not show the hyperactive behavior that is characteristic of ADHD. ADD primarily affects a person's ability to focus on tasks for extended periods, leading to difficulty in school, work, or home life.

What is ADHD?

ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is a broader term that includes symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. ADHD is the more commonly used term today to describe individuals who struggle with attention, but also exhibit hyperactive or impulsive behaviors. People with ADHD may find it difficult to stay still, follow instructions, or complete tasks without jumping from one thing to another.

How Are ADD and ADHD Diagnosed?

Diagnosis for both ADD and ADHD typically involves a comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare professional. This may include interviews with the individual, behavioral assessments, and feedback from family members or teachers. The symptoms must be present for at least six months and interfere with daily life. For ADHD, there is an additional focus on hyperactive and impulsive behaviors, while ADD is diagnosed primarily based on symptoms of inattention.

Treatment Options for ADD and ADHD

Both ADD and ADHD can be managed with the right treatment plan. The approach often includes a combination of behavioral therapy, medications, and lifestyle changes.

Behavioral Therapy: This type of therapy helps individuals with ADD and ADHD learn coping strategies, organizational skills, and ways to manage their symptoms.

Medications: Stimulant medications such as methylphenidate (Ritalin) or amphetamines (Adderall) are often prescribed to help improve attention and reduce hyperactivity.

Lifestyle Changes: Creating a structured routine, reducing distractions, and incorporating regular physical activity can help individuals with ADD and ADHD stay on track.

Coping Strategies

Living with ADD or ADHD requires a few adjustments. For individuals with ADD, staying organized, breaking tasks into smaller chunks, and setting clear goals can be helpful. Those with ADHD may benefit from techniques to manage energy, such as taking breaks, using tools like timers, and practicing mindfulness.

Sometimes I feel like celiac disease doesn't actually count as a disability since it's so easy and stress free compared to deadly allergies, but then I remember that I have to meticulously plan every trip I go to and play 4D chess with uni campus restaurant menus and for a brief moment there was genuine consideration if I should be put on growth hormones because I was so small from not getting enough nutrients

[growling]

the way this website treats disabled people is actually horrendous

My favourite version of Batman keeping the Joker alive is him being like. A litmus test for the justice system

Like Joker thinks Batman and him have a special bond but in reality it's just that Batman knows when the system can Actually Deal with people like the Joker he can finally fucking retire, bc people can't wriggle out of their deserved punishments

*whispers* you can give us your snape hot takes this is a safe space

Marauders fandom hates Severus way too much.

Please mind that I'm not saying this about every person in the fandom, obviously, but i keep seeing these takes that hate on snape, and it gets on my nerves so bad.

"Oh, but he bullied kids!" Peter was a rat sleeping in the same bed with children. I don't see you guys hating on people who try to make him a better person in fannon.

"So what that James bullied him? Snivellus deserved it." Did he deserve to be sexually assulted? Imagine having your underwear shown (or even nearly shown) to your entire boarding schools courtyard. I mean, I don't know about you, but I would never forgive that. And trust me when I tell you this, I'm a forgiving person.

But also! It's the fact that all marauders fans stick to cannon abaut Severus. He bullied kids, looked bad, was obsessed with Lily, and was posessive, yada yada. Okay. Give me a single redeemable quality in Peter Pettigrew. I'll wait. I have time.

I mean, at least Severus went to save his past friend when he realized that she was gonna get killed. Pettigrew led his friends to their deaths.

"He was still a blood purist!" They also call him a nazi and a racist for this, by the way. Now, let me hold your hand when I tell you this. So was Regulus. Shoking, isn't it? And so were the Black Sisters. But they still get good PR in the marauders fandom.

All I'm saying is we could be a little less critical of fictional characters. Marauders fans say themselves that the people who say stuff about this and that not being cannon are just party poopers. Despinte all I say here, I still think that cannon Snape was a bitch, and completely unfair to his student. Despite all I said here, I love James, and I love fannon Peter. I love Regulus and the Black sisters. But I can also love fannon Snape.

Can you tell I have a favorite design

Omg I do not use tampons but now every time I get my period I have to think of that post and how mortifying of a situation that would be. Thaumo and Nalis are with me in the bathroom in spirit and nothing can make them leave 😭😭😭

I’m glad the tampon ask is haunting not only me but also those who follow me 😭🤝

My doctor had me do an ADD test a few months ago.

It was a short questionnaire relating to the past 6 weeks, about a third of which wasn't relevant because it specifically pertained to school, and a couple of tests requiring me to hit the space bar whenever I heard a particular sound or saw a particular letter.

The doctor said the results didn't indicate ADD.

Now, I don't really believe in self diagnosis, but the kinds of things I've said that have made professionals think I may have it have nothing to do with focusing on a single task on a computer in a small silent room.

Idk, I feel like that test is out of date or something.

I get lost in my own house.

[holder-culture-is]

ADD holder culture is I blame my very ADD source /hj

SO REAL ACTUALLY! A lot of our autism holders were very autism coded in source :3

(btw, don’t wanna be rude, but I thought ADD was changed to be ADHD? I’m still gonna put ADD in the tags but pls someone correct me if I’m wrong :D)

see i dont think you can blame meat dirk for killing candy dirk when they were both the same guy until 10 minutes before dirk went suicide mode. that being said we can probably blame gamzee for this

that one is tricky. dirk was so scared of existing on the same timeline as gamzee because of the pre retcon memories that he suddenly remembered of him getting his ass handed to him

i dont reblog those posts about how hard it is to have moralizing ocd in online spaces, even though i deeply resonate with them. ironically, i can only talk to 2 people about my ocd, because one of my obsessions is that other people will assume im using my mental health as a shield against criticism if i talk about it. therefore, if i talk about my ocd in any circumstance, my brain believes that i'm already doing something immoral

basically, most of my obsessions resolve around people assuming bad faith of me or that i'm somehow secretly an irredeemably bad person, no matter how hard i try to be good. i am a bad person if i dont reblog posts about serious topics, spend every waking moment thinking about extremely serious topics, or make any social mistakes whatsoever (which is scary because i'm also autistic). i believe that i am irredeemable if i make a small mistake, and i often think all my friends are waiting for me to make a mistake so that they can attack me, and that my life will be ruined if i fuck up. im constantly scanning all my interests (and people i know) for the tiniest imperfections (far beyond healthy amounts of criticism in your interests) out of fear that liking anything or anyone makes me a horrible person. if you dont take a side on this lgbt label discourse, then youre a bigot! im ALWAYS mentally preparing responses and apologies to totally theoretical situations of people being upset with me. i have intrusive thoughts about doing the immoral things that scare me most.

the problem is, *talking about* any of these thoughts invites people who will actually bad faith me. "if youre so worried about this stuff, then you must have something to hide! you just want to avoid accountability!" they make your obsession a reality by accusing you of the exact thing you fear most. none of these thoughts are reasonable or realistic, and i know that. i know that i'm mentally ill. i know logically that i'm as good a person as anyone else. when i actually do make a mistake, i stay level-headed and apologize, acknowledge what i did wrong, and change my behavior

but there is a large part of me that does not want to heal from my ocd, because i believe constant self-monitoring and self-critique is the only thing preventing me from becoming a horrible person

there is nothing i want more in this world than to be a good altruistic human being who is capable of growth, but spending weeks trapped in thought loops analyzing all my behaviors for the smallest signs of a mistake will not help me be a better person. it makes me a worse friend. it drains my energy so that i dont have the mental capacity to actually spend time being kind to others. i reread this post many times while writing it to make sure i didnt accidentally write 6 different slurs. but i can't figure out how to heal. what the fuck do i do about this

this is incredibly hard for me to write about. i'm fighting the urge to delete this post as you read it. i cant stress how debilitating this is for me, it is the biggest hurdle in my life and it sucks away days worth of my time and energy. i will become trapped in thought-loops THE SECOND im not kept sufficiently busy and stimulated by tv/music/my bf/being out of the house somewhere/etc. so much of my life is wasted wanting to be good, that i dont get a chance to actually live the life of a good person

i really hope this post resonates with someone. ive only met a few other people who have this particular kind of ocd, and its extremely isolating. but i want to try to heal from it, and i know the first step to healing is talking about it
