Hey, Wanda B,
I’m with Larynxa on this. (As usual.) (Larynxa is smart and always has good thoughts.)
I got diagnosed at 47 and I actually was a reasonably successful actor, write, director and producer. The workload was killing me cause I didn’t know what was going on.
When I got the diagnosis I realized why I loved skit comedy and could produce more of it faster than anyone I’d met then, or since, yet could never get anywhere with all the amazing screenplay ideas that I’d have.
It will get better, IF you take it on. In fact, acting and improv are great training for a mind that does do well at listening and being present to what’s happening. In fact, in our documentary, ADD & Loving It?!, Patrick joined with and took part in an improv class at Humber College. The students were thrilled to have a Second City legend playing with them.
