Good job on your sobriety! There is a great book called Scattered, by Gabor Mate, that discusses the ADD traits.. how it runs in families, the anxiety component, etc. My girlfriend's son had a lot of that also, when I first met him at age 6, but has really calmed down now, and he's 9. There are many techniques to try that do not involve medication. Mate wrote a great one on addiction too.
