I've been doing a bit of research and found the following characteristics in ADHD people:

- People with ADHD are very unique... we tend to be the ones that can "think outside the box".
- We are highly creative in our thinking; being able to see things from all angles.
- Our hyper minds allow us to think far and wide and back again, making us good multi-taskers and again, very creative.
- We make good leaders.
- We are very insightful.
- We are very strong in our ability to observe, calculate and understand other peoples emotions. Our emotional intelligence is very high and can be used to help others.
- We are also highly sensitive which can be good and bad. If used properly, it makes us very caring and sympathetic to others.
- We enjoy challenges and are good at solving problems.

Please see if any of this is true for you and add to the list!!!

I know that I felt better having found some of these characteristics true within myself. I am an artist and I work in a wide variety of mediums. If I get bored with one project, I just move to another, LOL. I am super sensitive and highly intune with my emotions as well as others emotions. I am currently in the process of learning how to control my emotions better so I don't get hurt so deeply. I do love a challenge and that would be my art business and trying to make it successful. I am also a leader of a successful promotional group. I love to solve problems and give advice and I am told that I am good at that (because, yes, I can see both sides and everything in between). I am also a Reiki Master and it doesn't get more insightful and imaginative than that, LOL. My creativity, focus and drive have led to having some articles published in a national magazine.

My biggest challenge though is getting bored easily, waiting and racing negative thoughts. Ugh... I hate those.

Let's here from you... what are some of your accomplishments despite having ADHD??
