ADD is something that some people are born with. it basically means you have a hard time focusing
ADHD means you have a hard time focusing because you're very hyper.
You are professionally diagnosed with ADD by getting a neuroesych test. they are very expensive. like 2 grand. with good health insurance that can go down.
girls and boys are one in the same with add. it makes no difference.
some cases are mild enough so that you can control it. if not, you can go on some medication that would really help. like adderall, stretera, or methelyn.
Just because you're not physically active doesn't mean you have add.

hope this helped.
