Why?
I had problems i primary scool, and social pressure later on tended to make me push onto others. With no appearent response (werw they owerwhwlmed?), I found someone else.
Shifty, hyperactive, socially clumsy and short sighted - probably. I did not feel included in social groups either, despite trying to join.

All right, I thrive in my own company, running about. Now, at last, I have experienced lasting friendships
I am very glad to hear that you have experienced relationships now! It's relieving to find really good friends.

I'd like to become more self-sufficient and become comfortable with running about on my own. Maybe I need to develop some better self esteem when alone when surrounded by others

Kikki27 - I get mad too sometimes when people talk to me. I think ADHD and friends can work, but it definitely takes practice.
