A very sad post ‘thisguy’…it breaks my heart to read about your plight. I hope that you and your daughter manage to have a special day today…
Those drastic thoughts that you’re entertaining must be pushed away as soon as they pop into your head. Your little girl needs you, and not only do you have an obligation to love and protect her, she has a right to having her daddy to look after her too. Kids that are fatherless are vulnerable to exploitation from predatory types, and life’s tough enough for a kid without having to deal with no daddy, eh?
Those of us with ADHD know only too well the crap that comes with it, and it’s a bitch, but we have to just keep plodding along and deal with the shit as best we can. It’s a vicious cycle: attempt something, fuck it up, give up, endure scorn and ridicule, procrastinate for a bit, make another belated attempt expecting to fail, do fail, and on and on it goes…If there was an award for ‘Loser of The Year’ I’d be in contention every year!
By the sound of it most of us aren’t the social butterfly type either, and you’re not abnormal by not having a busy social life. I could count my friends on one finger, never mind one hand lol….as for your meds, on their own they won’t be a panacea. You’ll need to join a support group in your area, and you’ve made a start by joining an online group. We understand the challenges that are there every day, so sound us out, eh? My email addy is harlequinwallace@gmail.com if you’d just like to unload…every time you have a bad thought you think about that tiny little girl and remember that despite what you and others might think about you, to her you’re the greatest guy in the world and she loves you more than life itself. You are her world. Make this your turning point to make her world a better place, a less anxious place, and be her security. She needs to know that, no matter what shit life throws at you guys, that you’re going to be stoic and that if nothing else, she’ll always have who she sees as the world’s greatest guy by her side looking out for her…peace and love to you! *gives thisguy a big hug*………
