Yeah, i hear ya. I did not know what was going on in HS with my ADD, but I empathize with your BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
I was not clear if you have been dx and/or if you are on medication. A good support group could help. I keep pushing CHADD but they are a good resource for many things. It was particularly hard for me because i did not have a support system at home. I do know that I started counseling at the age of 18, and while my therapist knew that there were differences in brain chemistry the ADD knowledge was not yet even on the horizon.However, he probably saved my life! I went to him for years and then on and off when I felt I needed a “tune up”. He was an excellent therapist, MSW. I named my second son after him. Paul helped me deal with my daily frustrations and offered behavior modifications. Something you might want to think about…remember, raging hormones add to the craziness!
