Feeling your pain Sherri, just started meds and hearing comments of, if I’m not suddenly fixed then obviously I’m just always going to be “this way”. I’m trying to get into counseling with the right person. I consider myself to be extremely optimistic, resilient and have done my best to find creative ways to get things done and politely thank the people for their totally un-useful but well meaning advice. Still – – my view of myself and others has been very confused and distorted by not being aware of my ADD and thinking that other people were screwed up for having such absurd rules and expectations.(Just because I can now focus doesn’t mean I can agree with anyone on what I should be focusing on!) I’m hoping that I can start on a new journey where I can re-evaluate my life story and forgive and be able to coexist with the non-ADD world in a more mutually respectful way
It helps to hear from others – nice not to feel so alone 🙄
