Thanks for posting that link @Larynxa, it’s really cool that those webinars become available for us.

Hi @Evelyn, welcome to one of the friendliest forums I’ve found on the Internet. This is a huge place for finding solutions to any and all of your ADHD and just general life struggles.

I’m glad you’ve shared the details of your life with us here. You’ve managed to handle so really large challenges. It’s especially valuable experience when you share it here. We’ll be watching you and of course caring a lot about how you’re doing.

I’ve been able to keep myself entertained for hours in the past. Just reading through the various and sundry “ADHD adventure stories” all across this forum.

Your story is equally interesting and heartwarming. The peoples lives that you were part of were made much easier and I’m sure you kept them well entertained along the way. It’s true for a lot of us that we get sort of busy with not giving ourselves enough credit for the things we’ve done well at. I can see that you’ve done really well in several other peoples lives.

You’re capable of the very valuable self sacrifice that our world desperately needs these day. Your father in law was one of the more lucky recipients of your kindness.

And now it’s us. So welcome to one of the nicest gathering places on the Internet.

I have gone through may periods in my life when there was “something special” about sleeping on the couch. It’s sorta like a treat of some kind. Maybe it’s about being forced to go to be early when I was a kid. My brother and I used to take turns sneaking out into the hallway and watching the TV, (while parents were on the couch, not knowing I was on my belly in the hallway, watching them watch TV… lol) I guess it’s lucky that they never fooled around, at least that I remember, huh?.

As a teenager, I found it always much easier to fall asleep on the couch after school. When I should have been doing homework. But then when I went to bed… Nope… couldn’t sleep!. N just looked at my annoyingly not done homework sitting there…. annoying me. That’s pretty annoying…

Well crap!. I wonder if MarieAngell is up to something important here. It’s a good question to ask.

What does the couch mean to you?

There’s a whole lot of difference between sleeping on the couch, and sleeping in our bedroom. Could be interesting. I know this. It’s kindof a treat to sleep on the couch. Maybe you just need to give yourself some permission to “have the treat that you most definitely deserve to have”

You’ve done so very much to deserve a nice treat. In the form of a fluffy, comfortable recline on your couch!.
