Attention Deficit Information & Resources At age 35, or so, I was diagnosed with ADD - only months after we finally found help for my son's ADHD. As the saying goes, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and it's safe to say, I have gained a wealth of information and experience throughout my journey. Whether you're just interested or have questions for yourself or someone in your life, I'm here to help however I can. Never hesitate to contact me. Phil
Here are some interesting resources that I felt were worth posting. There are many more and I will post them as I am able. In the meantime, if you have something to offer and/or a link that would help here, let me know. We're all in this together. Phil
