have you ever been around someone with severe adhd?

[hyp1]

my sisters husband has a bad case of it.the dude can't sit still or shut the fuck up for longer than 2 minutes.he's constantly talking to himself out loud,making weird fucking noises or compulsively walking from room to room or in and out of the house.the odd thing is he doesn't do drugs or drink at all,he's naturally fucked up - apparently.I can't stand to even be in the same room with the dude without wanting to choke the hell out of him.

I don't think it's going to last very long,she's like a babysitter and it will wear thin quickly enough.I think he desperately needs to be on a thorazine intravenous drip.

I have a friend and I think she suffers from it..She always interrupts you when you are speaking to her and shes hyper however she is very sweet so it makes up for it...

yes, i was with my ex husband for 10 yrs. the man couldnt sit still and paced everywhere for everything. it would take him an hour to put on socks because he was so preoccupied and distracted all the time.

it's exhausting to experience people like that.
my son has adhd too but at least he's a kid and it's under control for the most part (except for right now his meds have worn off and he's rolling on the dining room floor chewing his dinner instead of sitting at the table). I'm patient.

I don't think my sister's husband has any clue how fucking wound up he actually is

I've met people that were hyper,but never to this level.it reminds me of a methamphetamine head that's just done a gram of speed...and can't control themselves.

smurfy did your husband ever get on any medication that helped him focus?I bet it was like your were babysitting constantly and I can imagine that being extremely draining.

hope everything works out with your son

you and me would brawl.....

i have terrible ADHD, and i do the same things. although i don't really make weird noises...but pacing, and getting distracted...all day long.

it sucks, but ADHD isn't all bad...people with ADHD are usually really creative, and alot of the traits are part of my personality, so meh...

hard for other people who don't get it to understand......had major issues with this living with someone without it

no. well he had been on ritalin back in the 70s/80s in grade school but he wasnt on it long because of the sides I guess. so his basically went untreated his entire life, including no behavior therapy/modification.

kinda sad now that i think about it but have lost a few relationships with friends, roomates and women as a direct result of that when it went untreated...

tell her to have him get his thyroid hormone levels checked. The rest of you too (those that are "adhd" or know someone who is).

LOL about wanting to choke the hell out of him. Yeah, I've got a friend like that. He's a great guy, but I can't stand to be around him very long. Very restless, could never sit still long enough to watch a movie.

I'm a frigging ADHD magnet and definitely do not have it myself.

My first and current husbands both have ADD, my second and third bosses were both ADHD, my third boss was as severe as what hyp is describing, noises and all. If he needed something done in a hurry he had a tendency to charge into my office and basically hover behind me, shifting from foot to foot, jingling pocket change. He didn't realize he was doing it, he'd just get caught up in whatever he was currently thinking about and forget where he was and what he was doing. I'd have to shoo him away. He was a very trying person to work for, I had to be his walking memory, anticipating everything he might need to realize he suddenly forgot.

My adult son is extremely ADHD. He's been getting therapy/treatment for it for most of his life and has developed a LOT of coping strategies, but to say he has a talent for pushing people's buttons in the extreme is the understatement of the decade.
