ABOUT US: |
|
The Manhattan
Adult ADD Support Group has run support sessions for adults with Attention
Deficit Disorder -- or, more formally, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity
Disorder -- since 1992. We're a
public, walk-in support group led by ADD adults. We are also fortunate to
have presentations led by some of the leading experts in ADD/ADHD.
|
| "I cannot refrain from letting you know how
illuminating tonight's meeting was for me. There is something
amazing about 60 strangers having such a powerful link." -- a recent participant |
| |
| In
the 15 years since we have been running meetings, we have formed a sense
of community. Everyone is welcome. Many come every month to share their
experiences (successes as well as challenges).
If you have just been diagnosed, you will be
especially interested in some of the literature which is available at
every meeting (and free of charge:). We hope the information we have
gathered helps you.
|
|
We meet monthly;
We hold two meetings a month. Our meetings at West End Collegiate
Church are meant to offer support, guidance and a sense of community for
adults with ADD/ADHD. Our second meeting is held at the Seafarers
International House, where guest speakers talk about issues which affect
adults with ADD/ADHD.

| At these meetings, we're
joined by adults who
either have been diagnosed with ADD, or who are thinking about whether ADD
might, for them, serve
as an accurate diagnosis. People come for different reasons.
Some find that to encounter others like them is to feel less isolated. Others value the
chance to discuss their experiences in ways that are
often off-limits in every day conversation. Many come to learn more, or to
share knowledge and
insights. |
In July and August, we're purely a discussion group.
