    Last Tuesday I went to see the therapist for the first time, he asked a bunch of questions. That part doesn’t bother me but, what was new to me is he thinks I have depression and anxiety.

    Depression is news to me, from what I’ve seen from my mom, all my problems seem pathetic in comparison. The worst thing that had ever happened to me was being kidnapped by dad, but I’ve long since forgotten about him.

    As for anxiety that seems to always been around. In recent years, it has started to spike to unbearable amounts. At this time I’m starting to wonder if it was just anxiety and depression that was misdiagnosed as ADD when I was a kid.

    OK, since my mind won’t shut up about this, one of the reasons for questioning if I did grow out of it or not was, I can be on time to things I must go to these days. That was my major troubles during grade school. Now I just set multiple alarms and force myself to leave to college or required appointments.

    From what I’ve been reading, ADD’ers aren’t on time until medicated. Yet I’m able to get to important things on time.
