Re: University/College Faculty with AD/HD

[Robbo]

Thanks a bunch

Helpful stuff you guys, I’m not a student. I’m curious and have studied a gazillion different things. Just not ass much spelling as I should. It’s very encouraging to see that some folks with add/adhd can still succeed, depending on one’s definition of success. I think there may be as many different ways to succeed as there are combinations of impairments that we humans experience. Anything close to a regular routine is a good sighn (more crreative spelling) of impending success for me. I‘ve already had a couple mini careers, I‘m discovering the next one. When my life gets sorta stable, organized and predictable. Words I doubt are ever used when folks gossip about me in my tiny little small townish neighborhood/apartment complex. It’s great! Then I can’t stand it and mess it all up cuz I get bored hehehehe… I invited a friend here, {this web site} I’ll bet she gets a good snicker out of that one. Like me, she’s not too thrilled with some of the small town characteristics in this little “pointe” on the map I live in, she sorta lives n works here both.

I made a new folder in my ADHDers folder for “good threads to read” and saved the “best antidepressant/anxiety meds to co-exist with add/adhd meds” thread. As well as this one. Just reading and learning is helping tons, I’m also finally winding down from the final decrease in the Wellbutrin. I stretched it out over about 6 months, and more quickly from 2 150 mg tabs wellutrin to just 1 over the last 6 weeks. I’m having some grief about having strong tendencies toward adHd, not bad depression though. I think because I have a large kit of mental, spiritual, physical (what I eat especially) tools to use. Medication is a pain in da ace. But I’d rather be a lit bit grunpy cuz I have to take pills than very freakin angry cuz I’m in a straightjacket! hehe. Sorry I realize that’s not actually funny. I haven’t had to go even close to that place fortunately. I’m sure glad I did read this post after I clicked send. Sheesh, almost forgot to edit/proofread, I wasn’t makin sense, I hope not too many people read the first draft of this one :0)

Ack! I’m starting to ramble… woops zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Grrr, had to click edit twice, I’m calling it good enough now.
