I saw my psychologist for the first time regarding my adhd. Even though I felt pretty good about my "whining session" with him, now I am a mental mess. I feel so needy. He said he would call me as soon as he reviewed some of my tests for my next appointment. I am so afraid and I don't know what to do until I see him again. I feel more scattered than ever. I don't know what to expect the next time I see him- if he will tell my what to do, or if it will just be another talk session. Our talk served to get a lot of stuff out in the open, but now I am so sad and don't know how to take care of myself. I went to him in an effort to be proactive and find a solution and "poor little me" can't do a thing for herself. Somebody slap me! Can anybody tell me what to expect for a second visit - will he tell me how to help myself? I've read so many self help books and have researched online. But I can't find any information on what to expect next. He said something about "killing snakes even if we don't know where thay are coming from". Apparently he noticed some snakes. On top of screwing up my work, I have 0 money, and I need to see him soon. Any experienced adhd people out there diagnosed as adults who can enlighten me? Thanks

Oh brother! I just reread my post. Please disregard it, I know it sounds so self indulgent and hopeless. But I won't be and it's not. "The sun'll come out tomorrow..."
sorry!

It's hard to say what to expect next since a lot of therapists treat ADD differently. Don't feel bad about finally being able to express your emotions. That is good thing. You ARE helping yourself by taking a step to get help from others. You should be very proud of that because there are many people who will never seek any type of outside help.
