Anyone with ADD?

The title says it all. Do any of you have ADD? Or do you know anyone with it?
It's a type of ADHD without hyperactivity and impulsivity.

For me, it makes socialising even more difficult, because my mind struggles with focusing during conversations. Sometimes I even struggle to hear what other people are saying, if it's in public or there's a lot of noise around me. I can't filter out the sounds. But that's also a symptom of asperger's, so it's hard to tell the difference. Anyway, that's just one of the ways in which it affects me.

Right over here. I deal with it on a daily basis and I refuse to take any medication to combat it.

I also struggle to understand what people are saying in situations like that but it's even worse over a telephone. The 3.4 KHz frequency limit on phone lines may have something to do with it which is only worsened when said audio is compressed nowadays. I'd much rather text as opposed to saying "I'm sorry, could you repeat that?" or "What?"

My legs also shake at random.

Clearly, I have ADD.
