wow interesting posts. I just feel that I can totally relate to all of this and it feels good to find like people in the world I live in. Ive been pursuing this ADD thing as Im unemployed and working on resumes and just found out as I went through the ADD questionaires about ADD. Im just into my 40s and it seems life has just been so hard all this time and being divorced and a single father of two one of which has autism its hard to stay on task and get out of bed and stay on some sort of schedule. Im so thankful school starts soon to know they will have there responsibilities instead of me struggling to keep track of summer activities for them. I was reading about tiddler and I think youve done well for yourself having a degree being married and kids your really on top of it as Im sure its always been a struggle for you. Im an electrician but I struggle everyday just trying to complete tasks. If they take to long I just lose interest or concentration but Im a perfectionist and always do a great job just cant seem to get it done on time. My reality is not how the real world sees it so it keeps me behind taking to long to finish tasks and I know I need to get help with all of it. Maybe medication therapy meditation? I have always had to push myself from the time I get out of bed to the job to getting dinner done for us to eat at a normal time. I am trying to find a meetup group but I havent found one here in the bay area so I find myself starting one maybe but It will be added stress for me and not sure If I can doit.
