My unprofessional guess: yes, Millie = ADHD

Regarding the whole ADHD thing: I do think it's a legitimate phenomenon in that there are pretty big extremes in how the attention system works, and some people have pretty severe problems due to falling on the low-attention-control edge of the spectrum. However, I think that in some cases, (I'm not sure what percent), the suffering involved has more to do with not being in the right niche, or an arbitrary expectation placed on someone, and less to do with the attention problems being truly that severe. Sometimes it's a problem having to do with the environment being too arbitrarily demanding rather than a person having a really bad intrinsic problem.

Eh, "that person acts different than I do so they must be abnormal" trivializes *actual* personality disorder far more than I ever could. :millie:
It very much irritates me when I see someone claim that psychological conditions are trivial. Having lived with a sincerely psychologically messed up brother for most of my life, I'mthe amount of stress, anguish and frustration it can cause. And it's very real.

Here's a direct translation of what Mista B said, using Babelfish:
" dass die Personentaten, die also sie unterschiedlich sind als ich tun, müssen abnormal" sein; trivializes *tatsächlich* Persönlichkeitsstörung weit mehr, als ich überhaupt könnte.
I don't know what this sentence mean?.

I mean u can al words tranlate but they haven't a "sin".
I realy can't understand this sentence.

What B is basically saying is: "Mein Hovercraft ist voller Eel! Mein Hut, der hat drei Ecken. Drei Ecken hat mein Hut. And hätte er nicht drei Ecken, so wär's auch nicht mein Hut."
u mean he mean nonsinse?

For some people isn't ADHD a problem.
And if u have ADHD u can learn attention-control and to conzentraid.
I mußt know I have say I have it by my self.
But your unprefossional guess was very good I think except the last part. Some peopel or much people won't be so how other people like that the people be so.

This topic is getting far too silly. As such, I'm shutting it down. Talk about teeth for god's sake. This program is called Teeth but so far there hasn't been a single mention.

I've seen that film. It freaked my girlfriend out more than it did me.
