I think I need to go to this...

The Attention Deficit Disorder Association is holding it's annual conference in Minneapolis this year!
Just imagine... Hundreds of adults with AD/HD all gathered in one place. LOL!
The info on the conference is HERE. For the full conference it's $399 for a non-member, but it is only $199 for students.
Besides the $199 pricetag, the big drawback for me would be that my birthday actually falls on a Saturday this year and it is smack-dab in the middle of the conference. :(
But some of the sessions sound soooo useful for me:
Three Secret Weapons Let You Win the War Against Procrastination

Time Management from the Inside Out: How Having AD/HD and Executive Dysfunction Require a Different Approach to Learning Time Management Skills

Fears, Tears & Cheers: Working Through an AD/HD Relationship Together

AD/HD is an Explanation Not An Excuse

Just like your average SF convention? :D

Yup! Except the hygiene is probably better!

Great joke from a few months ago.... Someone was telling me that it was diabetes awareness day, or some such disease/disorder recognition day. To which I responded, yes, but next week is Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Awar... ooh, hey! shiny!

Also, next week is OCD awareness week. Next week is OCD awareness week. Next week is OCD awareness week. Next week is OCD awareness week. Next week is OCD awareness week.

With sessions like that, they really should give a discount for people who wait to register at the door.
