This article is very informative. Its by Russel Barkley and very detailed. I strongly suggest that everyone read it. It explains so much in an easy to understand way. I have seen most of the info scattered around the net but when he puts it all together, plus mentions the newer studies, it brings it all together in my mind.

The site it is hosted on has been bought out by another site so I don't know whether it will continue to be available or not in the near future. If you can't read it now it can be saved to your computer in a file so you can read it later. I did it. There is just too much info to get through in one sitting.

Thanks CG...from what I read, it is very good. I just printed out all forty pages of it. My eyes are tired tonight, so I'll finish tomorrow.

Thanks for the info!

I started to read it, it is good, but had to print out the rest of it. It is very good. LOL all of us printed it out.

I scanned it and find it interesting too! I skimmed a lot of the hyper ADHD and combined stuff, since I live that everyday, but found his comments on the ADD inattentive interesting, that would be my trish. I will have to go back and read some of it this weekend when things are calm and I am on it better.

I printed out this article months ago and just recently sat down and re-read it. I just wanted to bump this up again in case others haven't seen it. This article is very good. If you have the time and the paper (its 40 pages), its worth printing it out.
