Have you tried writing in a journal about the problems. Especially the personal relationships stuff. If the Concerta is still worth taking maybe making some adjustments, or adding new coping skills to deal with the newest version of you might help.

Having a REALLY sick puppy is like getting kicked in the teeth. A sour batch of apples, a sock in the belly, a fat lip, a whack up side the head with a two by four… I got a few more, but just want to make ya feel better, not feel guilty from laughing. I don’t like it when an innocent pup is hurting.

In mostly good ways I’ve made some slow, gradual personality changes. I’m a different me now, so it’s important to add new coping skills that fit the new struggles. I hope this makes sense to ya. I think I’ve got some unresolved anger about going so long without the correct diagnosis and treatment. Not dealing with that anger, or mainly not feeling like I’m gonna be able to at least help prevent other folks from going through the same gunk yet is also pissing me off. That would feel like a little bit of justice in an unjust world. I have a teacher person I know, that won’t let the reality of ADD into his thick freakin skull. There’s nothing I can do. So I just removed him from my list of acquaintances. He was almost a friend, but too narrow minded n arrogant. I’ll save the 4 letter word for my journal… words, that is. grrrrrr

It’s possible that I’m just projecting my own anger; there’s some frustration I’ve been kinda stuffing… Dumb little stuff I really thought I was doing a good job of just letting go, but it’s persistent stuff that I’m gonna have to start writing about. Gotta deal with it completely before I can truly let it go.

I’m gonna start a personal journal again. I’ve done it many times before. I just don’t always feel like I need to keep at it. More freakin work!, growing up is a dang pain in the butt! especially at 47.

I hope this helps, it helped me some at least. So thanks :-)

I wish I could just throw a good old fashioned temper tantrum sometimes. Kick n scream, maybe throw my shoe (again). I just did that the other day cuz I was frustrated about not liking what’s on tv. Little stuff gets on my nerves lately, but seems barely enough to even mention, we all get frustrated, and your problems sound like a lot!, a sick puppy is really sucky. I hope the pup feels better soon. What’s the puppy’s name?

***pet pet** aww, poor lil pup. :-(

All is not right in my world if someone I know has a REALLY sick puppy. I hope to hear about yer lil fuzz ball feelin better.
