You might have gotten in before they added the H lol. My diagnosis in the early 90s was called just ADD. They hadn't added the "hyperactive" part yet. The name does it a disservice though because it isn't an attention deficit, it is in fact the exact opposite. I have too much attention - I just can't always pick where that attention goes.

That would make sense. I just remember going to a doctor and them asking me a bunch of questions and then talking to my parents about some shit and I remember him saying don't give him a lot of sugary stuff. Nothing more came of it.
