ADD
Adults Group (Large email support group).
ADDults:
ADDadults is for adult issues. Relationships, work related issues,
medications, sexual issues etc. While we realize that many ADDadults have
children, we ask that the parenting issues be addressed to ADDtalk. |
children-with-adhd
(Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder in children is frustrating and
exhausting to the child and the family. Schools find these kids generally a
burden, and often lack the understanding, skills and training to effectively
deal with and help kids with ADHD succeed. We need to support one another
through discussion of what works, what doesn't, medications, and all those
issues that surface when loving a child who has the disease of ADHD. . . and it
is a disease. Join in and support one another, everyone wins, but mostly, our
children win because we have each other to lean on in those often trying times).
lwapartners
(This group is for spouses, partners, and significant others of people with ADD
(attention deficit disorder, AD/HD, ADHD). The purpose of the group is to lend
support to others who have ADD partners and to vent your frustration),
ADDictions:
One of the many things that ADDadults feel that is an issue directly related to
the ADHD is addictions. Whether it be food, sex, substance abuse or spending
addictions, ADDicts is a list for addults only. The list has no archives and the
member list is confidential.
