This is probably the best introduction of NTs to their AD(H)D partners, friends and loved ones I've seen on the net thus far. And explains things in such a simple but clear way. I see myself in most paragraphs - there are some ADHD big-ups which don't fit. Yes some of it is overstated. and I'll let others decide if I'm a genius - I'm not. But it doesn't half pull on some strings. Read the comments below the article too. There are some disagreements, but probably some are from NTs who really don't understand they ADHD counterparts or offspring. Must show my wife tonight: www.lifehack.org/articles/lifestyle/20-things-remember-you-love-person-with-add.htmlEdit: Or perhaps it's all BS and I'm just doing an 8, 9, 17 and 20!!

It helps because it just gets to the crux of the condition with such empathetic ease. It's as if the author has managed to go right inside the head of someone with ADHD, pull it out and unravel it, and then lay it out on a table for full and frank exposure.

After having to explain to my parents a year ago what ADHD was, my 73 year old Dad said "I think I have ADHD too!" after reading the article.
WOW.
