Hi Toofat, that is a great analogy. Ironically, when I was being tested by my nice BC Health Psychiatrist, I said that things would go
much better if there was some sort of bloody instruction manual issued at birth. Because I am so tired of hearing .. ” you must’ve known that .. it’s common sense ” and the well known .. “just ignore it” or “jsut try harder”. Seriously, would love to learn how to drive.
I have seen bits and pieces of information, organisational tools, tricks for holding back impulsiveness and the like, though not much for the Transitions issue … but it seems that I need working meds to give me breathing room to learn that skill set. And so far what I’m on
isn’t working now .. either my body adjusted or it is reacting to .. I am more anxious and more hyper than 2 months ago .
I did find a psychiatrist down island who uses Cogmed .. but that is mainly for memory issues. Severe anxiety is messing up my
memory an other skills but cogmed just doesnt sound like it would do the trick. May have to extend search to the mainland. Cheers
