The ADD connection?

Did the N you were involved with also have ADD? Just curious because I've noticed a lot of people with ADD seem to "zone" when it's not about them. They have to have it be about them to give a shit. Maybe?

I think it makes sense since the frontal lobes of the brain control attention and the prefrontal cortex houses the ability to empathize. maybe it's indicative of all over bran damage.

Or maybe that's not fair to those with ADD. I haven't met any who give a shit about others but maybe they do in fact exist...

What do you think? Can you have ADD but still have a ton of empathy?
