Encountering a blog for the first time is like walking into the middle of a conversation. There was something of interest that drew you into the conversation but, because you were not there at the beginning, you are not privy to some of the “inside” comments and asides. It is with this in mind that I have put together a list of “must read” blog posts. No doubt there was some post that brought you to this blog but, if you decide to read other posts, it may be helpful to understand the conversation from the beginning.
The posts selected below are based, in part, on what I believe to be important posts and also based on the popularity of particular posts. Most importantly I tried to cover most of the key topics, such as Time, Memory and various Adult A.D.D. issues (how to describe it, what it is like to live with it). Please feel free to contact me if you believe that there is a post that should be on this list.
If, like a true A.D.D.er, you are impatient and not likely to read all of these posts then, at the minimum, read the first three posts listed.
Bare Minimum: I would recommend reading these four posts.
- General description of this blog: The Phenomenology of Adult A.D.D.

- Time: The A.D.D.er Can Not Understand Life Because the A.D.D.er Can Not Understand Time
