Why do people mix up ADD with mental retardedness?
It%26#039;s annoying as hell I was diagnosed with ADD when I was younger but the ignorant always seem to mix it up with retardedness. It%26#039;s not a big deal it just pisses me off..
And I see other people mention they have it before showing any signs and all of a sudden no one can take them seriously why do people do this D;
Adam it is because of their lack of knowledge--or ignorance you make the choice. Yea I know what you mean and the more a person(s) plays with %26quot;I got ADD%26quot; or %26quot;he suffers from ADD that is why he did not do his homework%26quot; or such silly statements most other people will stop seeing it as real thing--condition for those that are going through it. Live life to its best and enjoy life never stop from being the person you were meant to be. Best to whatever you like and enjoy in life.
