Thanks guys – always good to know you’re not alone! This is only day 5 of my ‘realisation’ that I may be ADHD and the more I read, the more it all makes sense of my past.

toofat – I agree entirely but literally, up until abject misery with my son’s behaviour forced me to type ADHD into google, I was blaming myself for everything that had ever slightly gone wrong and blaming myself for how he was too. I cannot tell you what an eye opening transformative RELIEF it is to think that it might not be me – it might be ADHD.

However, I still know that I am responsible for my actions and I’m determined, like you say, to make some good choices and not damaging ones.

I’ve just booked an appointment with a hynotherapist – have read that it can really help with stress, anxiety and restlessness. I’ll keep you posted!
