hey brain!... There are special rules to the 'famous peeps with ADHD game'!...all of these rules were made up by my tiny mind, so feel free to ignore them! ___________________________________________________ Rule 1 - No historic figures! -Genghis Khan may have had ADHD, but he didn't have to ask for funding from his PCT or sit through a 3 hour assessment. Rule 2 - hear it first hand!-if you've heard President Obama talking about having ADHD, that counts. if your mate told you once, that Ainsley Harriott has ADHD, that doesn't count! ;D rule 3 - evidence-post a link to the evidence, so we can all check it out and judge for ourselves! ___________________________________________________ ...i tried sticking to these rules and could only find 4 famous people with ADHD Michael phelps, billy-joe armstrong from greenday, justin timberlake and David Neeleman (founder of JetBlue airways in the US) since then there's been a couple of others, mostly lesser known US celebs, that hardly anyone in the UK's heard of, like Ty Pennington (who!?!) celebs who are open about having ADHD are hard to find, so good luck & happy hunting!... -matt ;D Check out this old thread discussing famous ADHDers... aadduk.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=famous&action=display&thread=1049

Hi MarvelousMatt I may well have been `impulsive` with regard to that list I`d found very similar lists on variuos sites, but DO accept that it would be nigh on impossible to diagnose the likes of Leonardo De Vinci, considering it was hardly accepted in the 1970`s much less in the 1470`s (or whenever) ;D Anyway, I feel comforted by the likes of Richard Branson and Jim Carey etc having it ...sorta `fits`..... So, I consider myself reprimanded for my trademark impulsiveness, but it was great while it lasted!! hope you doin ok, Look forward to `chatting` with ya another time.. 6Ghz Brain......... ;D

"There are rules... this isn't Vietnam!" ;D
-sorry mate, didn't mean to reprimand anyone, think i got out of bed the wrong side yesterday!
i completely agree, that it's comforting and inspiring to see other people with ADHD be successful. - i hope more of them talk openly about it in the future!
hope you're having a good weekend! - matt ;D
