ADD As An Adult - What's It Like?
by Sarah Jenkins
Attention Deficit Disorder is often difficult to diagnose in adulthood as it sometimes masked by relationship problems, mood disorders, substance abuse, employment issues, or other psychological disorders. It was previously believed that children and adolescents would grow out of ADD, but it has just been acknowledged in the last few decades that it persists into adulthood. Actually, 67% of children with ADD will continue to exhibit signs well into adulthood. ADD is very difficult to diagnose in adults and sometimes only occurs after a child of the adult is diagnosed and the genetic link is made. . . . keep reading

I sat among a pile of papers. Everywhere I looked, I saw more work to do, and the longer I looked at it, the more overwhelmed I became. Finally, I burst into tears.

Why Daily Planning is So Important for Adults with ADD
by ADD Coach Jennifer Koretsky
For adults with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), details are a drag. We tend to see the big picture and want to jump straight to the finish line, wishing we could skip all the steps in between.

Rich Lowe
"Tellman and Stephanie encouaged the budding entrepaneur and showed some ways that ADD people are great for it because they are not stuck in the mud they constantly see new ways to do new things!"
Kris Koenig
"The information I have received has helped me to get focused and stay focused I have been able to complete projects and be a better listener."
"I'm fairly new to the program, but so far my whole outlook on life has changed. With my new knowledge from Stephanie and Tellman I have been able to release a lifetime of painful shame, almost instantly. That was such a big relief, it felt like an anvil had been lifted off me. Years and years of mentally beating myself, needlessly, has also been released. I now feel open to
acquiring new "programs" for my brain. I am so excited about being a part of this and I am looking forward to more, major, personal change in the days ahead. I can't thank you guys enough for the freedoms and life changing events I have experienced thus far. Keep up the great work!
Diane Cote'
"To Tellman and Steph, Thanks for gathering all these great resources together in one place. Being a 46 year old
single custodial parent grad student with ADD/ADHD combined form and my two kids of 4 and 6 are ADD/ADHD
combined form as well which makes for an interesting house at times let me tell you. It gets pretty stressful around here at times.
By having all the info in one place I am able to get to it an hour here an hour there without having to search for it which would just get me sidetracked and onto something else. Believe me that very thing has made it hard to get my thesis finished. Some of the info here I am starting to see the results of just here in the house so far with keeping all three of us on track a bit better.
It is also good to see that it is possible for me to make it as an entrepenuer. Not only for myself but for my kids as well. Thanks,
Kevin Newman
