type one is the classic most people think of ADHD short attention span distractability disorganization impulsivity and hyperactivity they can't sit still that's type one classic type two is inattentive ADD short attention span distractability disorganized procrastinate but they're not impulsive and more common in girls they're not hyperactive in fact they can be a little bit hypoactive the third one is overfocused ADD where the problem is not so much you can't concentrate it's you can't shift your attention that you get stuck and if you can't shift your attention you cannot pay attention but it's a different mechanism and I found this to be particularly true in children and grandchildren of alcoholics and they tend to be argumentative oppositional worry if things don't go their way they get upset and on the surface they appear selfish they're really not selfish they're just not flexible and stimulants tend to make them more worried and more upset type four is called limbic ADD it's where their emotional brain is too busy and it's sort of like ADD plus mild depression and the glass is always half empty for them type five which I think is such an interesting one is temporal lobe ADD they have problems in one or both of their temporal loes often goes with learning problems but mood instability irritability temper problems and then the ring of fire that's one I may be most known for the problem is not low activity it's too much activity please don't give them a stimulant because they can become violent aggressive actually use a supplement to calm things down in their brain very effective then the last one's anxious ADD where they're really anxious and so they tend to be early to things but disorganized distracted so on so knowing the type and that's why rolin has a bad reputation for the right brain it's miraculous for the wrong brain it's a nightmare
