I am new to CHADD and the whole ADD community. I am looking for a support group either online on in the San Francisco Bay Area. Any suggestions?

I am located in Lincoln California, I am also new to "CHADD". I have not looked around for one but I'd be interested in an online group for California adults and maybe meet once or twice a year. My user name is descriptive of myself, 10+ years since diagnosis but I have always been this way.

Welcome to the community!

You're on an online support group right now... as for in-person groups, I wouldn't know, but if you can't find one, and have the resources, you could consider starting one. I just started a mental health group at my college, which is largely made up of ADHDers; it's difficult sometimes to get stuff done (we're just about all procrastinators) but we're functional and I'm getting super excited for the real meetings to begin in February.

I'm new to CHADD as well and in the Bay Area (the city of SF). Am looking for local resources relating to ADHD. Specifically a psychiatrist that has lots of experience with Wellburtrin.

Let's let each other know if we find any local networks for ADD and/or ADHD.

Not what you're looking for?
