Re: So how do I know if it's working?

Thanks, folks. Yes, I’m carrying around a lot of baggage with this. After so many years of never getting it quite right and getting so frustrated with myself that I wanted to just give it all up, depression has become a rather regular companion. In fact, before I was diagnosed with ADHD, I was being treated for the big D. But I never really felt all that better with that treatment – perhaps because no one was considering that I was an adult with ADHD. Even now I sometimes have trouble believing it – that maybe I’m just a lazy screw-up who can’t get anything right.

I do know that I have a heck of a time controlling my emotions. When I get angry, I get really angry and when I get sad, I’m, well, really sad. So I guess it would be nice to try and get those things back into perspective first.
