In addition to the main symptoms, some other positive traits of ADD/ADHD are included below. Several years ago, I took an informal survey of 50 adults, asking what their favorite ADD/ADHD characteristic was. Their top ten answers are as follows (in no particular order):
- Endless Energy
- Hyperfocus
- Energy and hyperfocus combined
- Great imagination
- Creativity
- Humor
- Ahead of "establishment" thinking
- Creative thinking and problem solving
- Spontaneity
- Great passion for interests
So go ahead, enjoy your life, enjoy your ADHD and live life to it's fullest.
