3. The official diagnostic manual covers only ADHD. It has two subtypes: primarily inattentive or combined. The primarily inattentive subtype is ADHD without the H, without the symptom of hyperactivity. It is what the general public calls ADD. The combined subtype includes the symptom of hyperactivity, so it is ADHD with the H. Unnecessarily confusing? Yes, indeed.
