Why the upset now? You've lived with this "all your life" and are functioning, what is your real concern here, do you know?

First The original poster has not reponded back so we are just chattering amungst ourselves..
Sky I know you are attempting to be supportive.
I do not know if you have ADHD ,
its very debilitating and life has been quite a challenge to try to be a little bit functional.
I really don't concider having an eating disorder functional . or anger , or mood swings or impatience , or forgeting things, losing things , money not completeing school work being late because you set down your keys . or you go to the bathroom and can;t remember what you were on route to do befire you had to go . You walk out to your car start it and realize there are at least thre things you had planned o putting i your car that are not ther and when you go into the house you spend time trying to find out where you set them down because you got sidetracked .
Or say for me this week I locked myself out of my car TWICE . one time it cost me 50,00 because I thought I had but my lock box back under my car but realized later I did not .
Or you have to return to a store to go retrieve the envelopes you bought because you left them o the counter because the cashier engaged you in conversation at least twice a day.
depressed anti social and having to do meanail labor because you can;t figure out why your brain is the way it is and your blamed for being a slob or uncaring and could do something about it if you would just "TRY"
I do not consider this being "functional" . and its certainly not "us"
who we are . Its not who we want to be.
Im just a little bit angry and fed up right Now whith my ow brain .
Life is not "FUN" at ALL!!!!!!
I spend moments in despair each day . tired of retracing my steps driving back and forth getting to work and having to drive home , day in and day out.
I would never bring another human into my existance..
NEVER!
