Understanding ADD

  Understanding ADD pages 38 -47 of The Gift of Learning by Ronald D. Davis     ADD AND DISORIENTATION The general definition of ADD is almost good enough: developmentally inappropriate inattention and impulsivity with and without hyperactivity. However one component is missing: spontaneous disorientation. Disorientation is a major factor in the life of any person with ADD. It happens easily and often. It is usually driven by emotion. Boredom, curiosity, confusion, and fear are just a few of the emotions that can trigger an ADD disorientation. In exploring spontaneous disorientation, I have that these triggering emotions can be reduced to two types: avoidance and engagement. In a boring situation, the person may disorient to avoid the boredom. This would be commonly recognized as daydreaming or simply as not paying attention. The student actually is paying attention, but has shifted it to an imaginary inner world that is more interesting. On the other hand, ...

The Hallowell-Ratey Criteria for ADD

  The Hallowell-Ratey Criteria for A DD from page 14 of Thom Hartmann's Complete Guide to ADHD     In 1992, psychiatrists Edward M. Halowell and John J. Ratey developed, through years of clinical practice, study, and observation, their own set of criteria for spotting probable ADD, particularly in adults. While this isn't an "official" set of diagnostic criteria, since its first appearance in their book Driven to Distraction it has become both lay people and clinicians measure the probably of a person having ADD.   In publishing this, they added this caveat: "The following criteria are suggested only. They are based upon our clinical experience and constitute what we consider to be the most commonly encountered symptoms in adults with Attention Defict Disorder. These criteria have not been validated by field trials, and should be regarded as only as a clinical guide. Consider a criterian as met only if the behavior is considerably more frequent than ...

How I Found Out About My Genetic Variants And The Tools That I Used to Understand Them

This is a blog post about how I found out about the variants in my genome and the tools that I used to help me understand them.  I got whole genome testing done.  I got my whole genome analyzed by Dante Labs and Sequencing which are companies that specialize in Next-generation Sequencing (NGS) which is a modern method of analyzing genetic material that allows for the rapid sequencing of large amount of DNA or RNA. My mother got her whole genome analyzed by Sequencing.  https://us.dantelabs.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@DanteLabs https://sequencing.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@sequencing I obtained Binary Alignment Map (BAM) file and Variant Call Format (VCF) file from both Dante Labs and Sequencing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Alignment_Map https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variant_Call_Format https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4KqVfCdLo0 I used Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV) for finding out variants and their chromosome location with the use of the BAM file and VC...
