Even though I am ADD W/O (never had a hyperactive moment in all my 36 yrs!), I do have the anger problem. I can get so angry at such unimportant stuff! I think Noa's ideas are very insightful. I know that it's not Just anger with me. I have always been super sensitive, I seem to hurt more, grieve more, agonize more, ect., then anyone I have ever known. At least now, I know it all has a *real* reason. It was actually a relief to find out about the ADD! After spending my whole life thinking that I just had some kind of weird, defective, personality; to find out that the problem was *physical*, a mere brain glitch, took a huge weight off my psyche! Oddly enough finding out I had ADD was somewhat of a blessing. Though, I will admit to having a pretty quirky personality anyway, at least I no longer feel like some alien creature set down among the humans!CarolAnn
