Although I've been told countless times that I have ADHD by school counselors, teachers, and co-workers... I was lamenting the day that I believed it too. I have for a while now though, and the signs are piling up and/or getting worse. Even now, I had to turn off the tv, the ac, and close the blinds to finish typing this out. I've consistently been late to work even though I wake up earlier than I should, I just can't seem to stay awake in the morning, and hit the alarm off then go back to sleep. I had at one point convinced myself that ADD was something that I could just overcome, forget for a while and be myself again... but I don't remember a time where it hasn't effected me.
I think it's about time to see someone and get some help. I'm tired of being tired, and even more tired of forgetting important parts of my schedule unless I post something on my refrigerator (which is pretty full of scattered papers, mostly old that should be sorted out).
The only problem is going to be money... I just moved into a new apartment with some friends of mine. They seem to understand that I have certain needs/fears, and gave me a room to myself while they share one. I have to pay for a new car, and phone within the next 3 days, or I'm never going to get to work. Also, I planned on starting classes again at my local community college (small class sizes are a must for me), and will have to take out student loans soon.

Ughh... I'm just glad I'm happy right now.
