Adult ADD Information and Checklist
In conjunction with other diagnostic techniques, Daniel G. Amen, MD. (Publisher of Mind Works Press) says he "uses the [following] general adult ADD checklist to help further define ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) symptoms. No ADD adult has all of the symptoms, but if you notice a strong presence of more than 20 of these symptoms, there is a strong likelihood of ADD." We gratefully acknowledge Dr. Amen for this valuable contribution to One ADD Place.

Famous People with Attention Deficit Disorder & Learning Disorders
With perseverance, they made it.... So can you.
This page has been one of the most popular on One ADD Place. We get many questions asking how various names got on the list. Although, not all these famous people have been "officially diagnosed," they have exhibited many of the signs of ADD, AD/HD & LD. The point of this list is to inspire those of us who have similar challenges. We thank the Kitty Petty ADD/LD Institute for this valuable contribution to One ADD Place.
