Thanks Scatty and KC. I went to an ADHD group over the summer and have recently started a continuation for the semester. I have been doing a lot of research actually, and have taken quite a few courses in biology and organic chemistry during my college years. I just, idk freak myself out regardless.

As far as information sources, I have been combing the internet and websites like this since last spring, as well as consulting books like Driven to Distraction by Edward Hallowell and I recently bought the sequel. I have been attempting the “Notebook Method” since the summer and it has helped but it’s definitely not cutting it. I don’t write in it every day and I often don’t finish my To Do lists. Then I get depressed or ashamed and my personal failure and then don’t touch the book for at least another week. I also experience difficulty prioritizing the items on my list in order of importance. At the group they told me to use an A B C type of distinction system but everything always feels like A importance to me! I use the calendar on my phone as planner but I am still bad at remembering to put every single appointment in my phone and then when I do remember, my phone is in another room and I tell myself: I’ll do it later. (We all know how that goes.)

I am just really good at freaking myself out and it doesn’t help that my mom is a ball of nerves and my father doesn’t believe that ADHD exists. He told me I don’t need drugs – that I’m just not disciplined enough. I can’t help but feel anything I achieve from here on out he won’t really give me credit for now – which bothers me because I have always been a Daddy’s Girl. It’s just a nerve wrecking process to look up all of the side effects and health risks and just hope that I don’t wind up with most of that.
