This page is ADD links: hundreds and hundreds of annotated ADD / ADHD links in alphabetical order.
(Except for those in the "New" category) the categorized links are all included in this full alphabetical list and many that are in this alphabeticized list are not in the categorized groups. If you notice one that should be in a category but isn't, please let me know.
What follows in alphabetical order are links to some of the ADD-related sites that I've found helpful and/or fun. Some of the links are also divided into categories. (Not all links fit into categories or necessarily get put into the appropriate category right away.) Because something has to come last, these text-only pages are updated less frequently than are the graphical image pages. The date of the last update is shown next to the letter. If no date is shown, the last date was 2/15/98.This site recognized as a 3-star site by the Mental Health Net and a Heart of the Web site by Brandi Valentine. Thank you.
