Wow, thanks Distracted66…for sharing all that. And the fact that you almost took your own life…I’m so glad you didn’t. And I’m so happy your life turned around. You’re one of many who said getting help for their ADD has turned their life around. There is hope!

We have a lot in common in that I am also 44 and just recently diagnosed. ADD doesn’t affect my work so much. I’m a teacher, so the schedules and bells keep me on track. My prep time is a bit of a disaster. I’m sure it takes me 3 times longer than the average teacher to get things prepared. It’s my house-keeping skills that I desparately need to improve on. My husband does so much. And it takes me so long to get the basic things accomplished that I find I don’t have time for fun stuff. Or I do the fun stuff but leave the house a disaster and forget that my family (3 kids) need to eat!!

This is day 2 back on 18 mg, and yes, the nervousness returned, but after reading your reply, I don’t mind. I look forward to following through on the 2 weeks of 28 mg to see what happens.

Also interested to learn more about coaching. The psychiatrist I met with once didn’t know of any coaching in the area, nor my family doctor. Anyone know where I can find one in the Burlington/Waterdown/Hamilton area?

Thanks again.
