Hi Divided by zero,
I thought Id sahre this mornings distractions, I get up and go to feed my Dog. she's on a liver Med that has to be taken 1 hour before eating. i go to find the med because i had it in bed. why In bed? beause i was googling the name to see if It was Sam-e and maybe i could get the suplement cheeper/
I walk from the kitchen to the bed to look for it.
I see the matress sheet pulled up from the end of the matress .
I fix.
I end up in the kitchen fixing the breackfast . After a few other things.
oh right .. the meds!!!!!!
i go back to the bed .
Find them on a table near the bed . Don't remember droping them there.
I laugh.
I finish the breackfast.
I hop on here to share with you.
another question to ask yourself is .
Do you find you have to do a lot of retracing your steps through out the day to get back to what you were originally starting to do/
or to find things.
This may seem funny .
but its a lot of unessesary work and very inefficent.
back to trauma.
look in your past childhood and see how others treated you and how your reacted .
ask why they treated you the way they did.
were you called names. like space cadet, ragmuffin , scatterbrain , premadonna , Goofy, gullible, stubborn, klutz,
did you get your mouth washed out with soap by teachers. did you get reprimanded, as a behavior problem .
did you jump from one activity to another.
were you reprimanded , yelled at , belitted, maybe even hit by your parents because of the way you were , missunderstood as a wlld child who just woudn't listen .
were you pushed away because you were too physical/
did you get sexually abused because you were too touchy feely. with a parent or other adult.
Are you "defensive" a lot... hurt and angry , missunderstood.
all of this equals trauma .
all things to ponder . get a journal .
write and read about ADHD and listen to that small voice inside.
your worth finding the answers . and only you can find the truth.
