Well as you all know jeremy & I have 18 inches of snow , our power went out Friday evening about 5pm , then yesterday we woke up to not having any water , simply because the water in the trailor park was cut off due to the fact that there is no electicity for us to heat water , plus the snow has the wells so stopped up it's not even funny .

MY NEIGHBORS DOG IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My neighbor's dog barks all day every day. Our houses are seperated by a privacy fence, but I can throw a rock from my laundry room, kitchen, both bathrooms and bedroom window into her yard. I think it has super sonic hearing because the minute I move in the morning it starts and never stops, I can't take a peaceful shower, I can't even use the bathoom in peace. It is driving me insane. I'm not losing sleep over it, but I am loosing peace and quiet which is more valuable than sleep.

I am trying… Continue

ADHD and Depression

There is a very high rate of ADHD and symptoms of Depression or anxiety. I have seen the number as 80% of folks with ADHD also have what is known in medicine as a co-morbidity. I wrote a post about this on my blog.

What a year you have had!! 2010 is bound to be better. There is really good treatment for your diagnosis. I have a son with ADHD and depression who is doing fantastically well on Paxil and Vivanse.

I have a post on my blog regarding ADHD and co-morbidity (the awful medical name give… Continue

I'm Back -- and CRAZIER Than Ever!!!

I've had a pretty terrible fall this year. It started out badly with a break-up. There was a quiet period where I felt fine, but that didn't last too long. Then all hell broke loose.

I'm normally a person of great exuberance and of overexaggeration. When I say something like "all hell broke loose" it should be taken with a grain of salt most of the time. But not this time.

During November, things got so bad for me that my ex-husband worried that he might have to have me committed. The good new… Continue

My First Post-Where I am at the moment.

I am retired and a 24/7 caregiver for my wife.She does not have ADD.I have always had undiagnosed ADD. At least I have every symptom except hyper-activity.I do well at home because of an understanding wife and a routine.It is when I leave home that any problem begins.My wife and I go out four times a week. Please leave a question or comment for me. I am very open minded and will consider everything as constructive. Have a good day.

ADHD Evaluation - Not so fast!

I went to a 3-hour appointment yesterday. It wasn't what I expected. Turned out to be an introduction for all new patients.

Upon my 8:30am arrival, I immediately filled out registration paperwork. The clipboard of pages I had spaces to fill in basic personal info including a questionnaire. One of the questions was "Have you ever used alcohol." Ever?! Well, yes...I'm almost 40 now and in my 20's I attended my share of happy hours...especially after my first divorce. BTW, drinking excessively whe… Continue

If ADHD were fully controllable then it wouldn’t be ADHD

In relationships there’s a lot of give and take. You give some, you take some and you give some more. It’s a simple and necessary principle of reciprocation. The above sentence could just about start out any relationship book, but it’s not a very good starting point for a book about ADHD, love, relationships and sex [...]

Top Ten 10 Do and Don’t with your ADD ADHD partner

Love and ADHD a Bittersweet Reality

To be loved. Can I be loved? Am I lovable? Have you ever asked those questions of yourself? Have you ever stayed up nights, wondering why - why can’t I be loved? ADHD often seems like a bittersweet reality. Many of us are creative, we are exciting and we can find things to do when the rest of those around [...]

Lost Friends and Lost Lovers and Life Thereafter

Have you ever had relationships, so strong, so powerful, and ever so meaningful, that after that special person, or people, left, parts of yourself left too? There are times when you can still feel them nearby, as if they are right there – you can almost touch them, but only, only, almost – fleetingly, across the [...]

Wow Ralph! Good luck. Please let us know what happens as there is also a clinic close to where I live. I think it is in Seattle, Washington. Anyway, for both myself and my son I would love to know which parts of our brains are involved in the dysfun…
