I've been reading these posts and it's like a lightbulb has gone off in my mind.

Why doesnt anyone believe me when I say i have ADD? lol. Does anyone else have difficulty convincing others that they have ADD?

People seem to view it as a joke when it can really screw with your life...



Ever since I was a little girl I'd run away from structured activities (such as homework). I loved/still love to daydream all the time. I hate planners. I dont manage my time well. My assignements are often handed in late.

In high school I remember it'd take me so much longer than the other students to do a homework assignment. But i'd sit there and do it anyway. Determined. Now, i'm in College and I just despair.

I've already tried a lifecoach and it didnt seem to help. I dissapointed her.

I hate dissapointing people.

I keep telling my mom I have ADD but she wont listen to me. %@#&*

Why wont anyone listen to me??? :l

ugh.

Why does college seem so impossible. It's always felt impossible. I cant focus.

I never focus. I dont focus at all during class. I never have. Not during sermons either.

...

>_<
