Re: ADHD and Legal Issues

AN UPDATE: I received a fine and a stern lecture. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) my ‘offense’ was a minor misdemeanor so they are not obligated to provide legal aid to you. It’s only in cases where jail time is a possible outcome. The judge explained to me the importance of getting my ‘affairs’ in order so that I’m not wracking up a huge bill in court.

I cannot begin to explain how much this site and you guys have helped me. Typically I’d be a ‘hot mess’ rocking back and forth, making deals with God, promising to never ‘do it’ again. Reading that we all struggle with things in one sense or the other was a tremendous relief to me. Typically I am met with a chorus of “Oh Stephanie”, when I get myself into a pickle, but having people really listen and give me advice and some laughs meant everything to me. Thank you totallyadd. com and the ‘village’ of fellow ADDers out there. You saved my sanity. Truly.
