All your struggles are my struggles. It was strange reading your first message. It was you were describing me. my forgetfulness, starting projects without completing them, having great ideas without following through with them, difficulty expressing myself in words, difficulty getting to the point, my anger, handling casual conversations, keeping up with work and responsibilities like paying bills. I am tired of trying to make sense of all this and to cope. it is one day at a time for me. I came across your message and this site in my pursuit to find help in dealing with my own symptoms and struggles, especially at this difficult time in my life. I believe that it is incumbent upon us to keep trying until we get it right by being happy and productive. It is a daily struggle. However, it can be worse. The ultimate deal is to manage our symptoms by finding a way to deal with all of the above one at a time. It helps to meet and talk to others like us to put things into perspective. Also, by helping others, you along the way end up helping yourself. Getting involved with others gives you the motivation and the satisfaction that you need to get better and manage your adhd. It all count. Hang in there and do not give up. I tried Amino Acid powder for energy. It helped me focus and gave me energy at work. It also helped me through the low points in my life. Exercise for me, like running and resistance training, helps a great deal.
