In reply to ADD and Depression, how to tell the difference..., posted by Janice on October 21, 1999, at 14:08:48
Seems like you have a handle on what is what. Remember that depression will make many ADD traits worse.
Qualities I attribute to my ADD
*self-torturous thoughts (similar to anxiety)I would call this depression
*I always feel stuffed full (I think people who suffer from depression feel empty)
Huh ?
*unable to relax
*extremely poor time management skills. never feel like I've gotten anything done.
*oblivious to gossip
*don't/can't do small talk
*never at peace
*EXCITABLE (emotionally)
*serious troubles with boring things.
*rely on external structures for structure - internal chaos.
