I always knew that something was "wrong" with me but could never put my finger on. Two weeks ago I was diagnosed with Adult ADD and Depression.

Well, on my up's and down's over the last few weeks trying to sort out my life, I have a question for you.

I thrive on being on the go. I am the Social Butterfly! I want to go dancing, running around, being on the move constantly. My high can even be cranking the music in my car up really high and going for a drive. Finding friends like me have always been hard. I have always wanted a "girl" friend "like me" but have never found one. Not that I have not had good friends but never really ones I melted with. My husband always teased me that I was just a "wild child"..LOL The fun one to be around! He didn't mean that in a bad way.

I understand now that part of this has been my ADD (the always needing to be on the go part).

Have others that suffer from ADD felt this way? Is this just life? Do ADDers stand apart from the crowd that much?

Finding out about my ADD answers a lot of questions in my life, why I cant pay bills on time, why I am always a little late, never say what I want to, never follow through with anything, never accomplished anything in my life ( I have but right now I really feel like a failed at everything), always thinking what I could do today can wait until tomorrow, not being focused, forgetting the simplest of things and my list goes on....

Now, I feel like I am picking apart everything I am doing and saying on a daily basis. Trying to dissect the last 31 years of my life and seeing where and how everything went wrong.

Sorry to ramble!
