Crikey, please forgive my rambling mumbo jumbo dripping with typos and TMI! I hope that I haven’t alarmed you, or anybody else…my brushes with mortality were almost always due to my own stupidity, carelessness, inability to regulate my own intake of alcohol or drugs etc.etc. It doesn’t mean that all ADHD kids are going to be headed down that same ruinous road…my defiant streak was honed by being buffeted by those ‘authority figures’ along the way…parents, teachers, cops etc. I was always blamed, belted, and punished, often unfairly, for things that I did or supposedly did. Anyway, it gets better, that’s all that I know…
