Damn, I just have regular old ADD. I guess I'm like a CRT or something.

Actually, you got a free upgrade! At some point they decided ADD and ADHD are similar enough to be the same diagnosis, and both are called ADHD now.

Well that's dumb because I don't deal with any of the hyperactiveness like, at all.

It's called ADHD (inattentive). I have it too. Main difference is instead of hyperactivity, there's a hyperfocus as a self soothing and distraction tool.

Oh, I was already initiated when I couldn't even pay out-of-pocket for insurance because I have a pre-existing condition.

(Bipolar, not the ADD.)
