People with ADD / ADHD have a tougher than average people life. Everything becomes a little intense and bigger. Their minds are constantly creating, designing, thinking and never resting. Imagine what would feel if you were on a carousel that never stops spinning. That’s why here we remind these 20 features so you can understand your loved one.



1. Have an active mind

2. They listen but do not absorb what they are told

A person with AD you will look, listen to your words, see how your lips move; but after the first five words your mind will embark on a trip and their thoughts will go away from there. Chances are that while moving your lips will be thinking about what your hair is disheveled.



3. Have difficulty concentrating on a task

4. Quickly become anxious

A person with ADD can not think of anything more if there is something they are upset or worried. This makes the concentrate at work, in conversation or in social situations is almost impossible.

12. His thoughts are never traditional

Now that think differently, their minds will find abstract solutions to problems that the concrete thinker can not see.

13. They are impatient and restless

It is easily upset and they want things to happen immediately. Constantly playing with their phones, with their hair or move your legs up and down constantly; a person with ADD needs to be in constant motion. But I remember that these are all soothing activities for them.



14. They are physically sensitive

They feel that the fabric a shirt they sink, the bed is too hard (or soft) or that food has “some texture.” This is your life.



15. They are disorganized

Stack things is your favorite method of organization. Once a task is ready, all the papers related to it are stacked and remain there until the batteries become too high. It is only then that the person with ADD feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and decide to clean.



16. They need room to move

If you talk to someone on the phone feel better if they are in motion, since the calm and gives clarity to your thoughts.

17. Avoid tasks

Making decisions or perform tasks on time is a struggle, not because they are lazy or irresponsible, but because their minds are full of options and possibilities, and choosing one can be a problem. It is easy to avoid making decisions because they think of themselves as all too.



18. Not remember simple tasks

Another paradox of AD is memory. People with ADD can not remember go get your clothes to the cleaners, buy milk in the supermarket, or they must go to an appointment or meeting. On the other hand, remember every comment, phrase, and phone number you heard in the day. Regardless few reminders left in post-its or calendars, your mind is always distracted elsewhere. So it will be normal to see 15 windows open when using the PC.



19. They are multitasking

Due to the constant and accelerated mental activity, once you complete a task can be made the following no problem, or even make two at once.

20. They are passionate about what they do

When they do something they do with all your heart and soul. They are intense, perceptive and deep; this feature makes them adorable. In short, people with ADD / ADHD are hard to love, but once you understand the burden they carry on their shoulders your heart will open.
