Langstrump,

I know what you feel, some months ago i was deep in my own dark hole. I too grew up with a chaotic childhood with an animal abusing sadist speed addict ( and as far as i know still is a lying two face son of a bitch -No offense yo Grammy) and an ex speed addict, neglectful, still an alcoholic mother. Because of things i have gone threw in regards to those 2, I had been dx’d with PTSD.
Perhaps you have Post Traumatic Stress disorder too? I know that some times PTSD and ADD/ADHD they need to be combated separately so you can come to terms with the past, and move on from it before coping with ADD/ADHD can be successful.

For me, I have trust issues in regards to letting my kids be with their Grandma, and I barely tolerate being around my mom some days. My Dad will never get to know the kids. Some things are not forgivable. Mainly I don’t care much for the past, it’s the past and will one day be forgotten.

Hmmm, ok there’s still a lot of issues.

Focus on yourself. Your ADD, read as much on it as you can. Someday things will make sense and combating it will work. (I’m still waiting on that though….) Perhaps going back to a psychiatric will help as well. I know, for me, anti depressants are key for staying out of those dark wholes. They would also be able to tell if you have any other underlying or co-disorders and get you the medications to help with them.

I’m going to take a break, typing this is frustrating the hell out of me for some reason, but hopefully something from the above is helpful.
