Hi,
I've been researching and learning about Indigo and Crystal children for a while. Turns out that there are a lot of similarities to ADHD and they even comment on the fact that many kids are Indigo not ADHD.
Check it out.

Hi,
I have a huge connection to music, and if wasn't for music, I don't know if I would still be here. It has helped me survived.
I am currently studying sound healing. Its amazing how may indigenous cultures have used sound to heal. We all have t…
After a lifetime of watching people's eyes glaze over when I am talking and really excited about something (ie, rambling on and on, but with lots of drama), dealing with the social fallout of being ostracized after blurting out (yet again) something…
I've never found a drug to make me relax at all. Not sure "relax" is in my vocabulary. I'm am not working and still am stressed out. My mind moves a mile a minute.
So if you can some sense of peace, cool for you.
peace,
I totally relate. I commend you that you are out there. Because of my firecracker energy, I am so closed to even try. Its been like this all my life. I really get into fantasy and it takes over me. I cannot function.
It is ok to be TOO everything.…
yep, my anger is not directed toward anybody, but people don't know that. Meditate
Michelle,
Thanks for the reply. It really has to do with overload. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it is instant. And in front of people. My emotions are like this all over the place, and it did help that I don't have a lot of boundaries…
My first instinctual response is: HELL YES!
I am 40 and recently divorced after 15 years of marriage. Honestly, I don't know how deeply we were ever connected, even though we were friends. I am an EXPERT at becoming the person that the person I am…
I have had a horrible temper all my life. I have tried prayer, positive self-talk, negative self-talk (such as what a rotten person I am for being so volatile) and several other self-help methods, all to no avail. I have lost my temper and yelled at…

DANA said… - Lisa, my medical insurance just changed and I was unable to get my prescription of Cymbalta. I was told by the new medical insurance company that I will have to have my doctor try to pre-authorize the Cymbalta. I do not have anymore 30 mg Cymbalta left. All I have is 20 or 60 mg pills. I am not sure about jumping back up to the 60 mg dosage so I may just try the 20 mg and hope for the best!
Never a dull moment over here!!!

- Hi Lisa! Thank you for passing on the links and name of EFT professionals in my area! For some reason, the females name that you gave me sounds so familiar. I have to wonder if I already heard of her or met her before, but I am not sure?
How is the Savella coming along? Have you noticed less physical pain, more energy and better sleep?
I have been using Nikken magnets and apply them to my sore area's. (Neck, low back, outer thighs) I swear the magnets are definitely decreasing my pain level! I am still in aqua therapy. I love, love, LOVE the warm water exercises!!!! Have you ever tried this?
I received your previous messages and I will respond to them soon. My son needs to use the computer and so I am getting kicked off. It is so challenging trying to share a computer with four other people!!! My kids complain that I hog the computer. LOL!
Have a good day and take care, Lisa!

- Do you go to chiropractors or alternative professionals for EFT? Or do you practice this tapping on your own? How do you know where to tap?
I live in Pittsburgh, PA so I am way over on the other side of the USA! I think that there are alternative professionals here because I have read and heard about them, but I have not checked out EFT with a professional, yet.
The MindBody Prescription has helped me to figure out anger rooted to my childhood. Once I started to remember different situations, it definitely made sense why I am so angry. I am trying to work through the negative stuff to hopefully reach a better place on the other side!

- What is EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)? Is this mindbody healing?
I have been reading about the mindbody connection and it said that anger & rage is the #1 emotion that is trapped in our body. There are lots of books written about this topic, such as The Emotion Code and The Mindbody Prescription. Very interesting topics!

- Hi Lisa! I never heard of the medication for FMS called Sevella. Let me know how this medication compares with Cymbalta. How long have you had fibromyalgia? Does anyone in your family have it?

- Hi Lisa! I read on one of the posts about ADDer's with fibromyalgia. In March 2008, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I started taking Cymbalta in January this year, but I am now weaning off of it, due to negative adverse reactions.
I am trying to find more out about stimulants reducing fibro pain. I am taking Adderall, but not in a high dose. Are you taking stimulants and have they ever reduced your pain?

- Hi Lisa! I was born in the 60's and I never was evaluated for ADHD in my childhood or my teenage years. I was the dreamer type, basically a good kid in school and I had many challenges academically. I truly think that I got lost in the shuffle because I was a female who was more of a dreamer.
It wasn't until I was in my early 30's that my son was diagnosed with ADHD and learning disabilities that I suspected myself having the same challenges. Eventually, I was evaluated and diagnosed with ADHD, which was a relief. I tried medications, but I have not had the kind of response that I had hoped for. I go the more natural alternative route for treatment.
Good to meet you on here!

- Welcome to ADDer World Lisa!
Profile Information
- About me & Relation to ADHD or other condition?
- Diagnosed with ADD in the 60's, first generation of kids, poked and prodded throughout growing up, resulting major anger, depression and inferiority complex. Now working to heal and love myself.
Ok so I'm adding a little more cause I'm getting more comfortable. Let's see, been softening the edges of huge chips on my shoulders, what is Soft and where is in in me? I shutdown myself pretty much, especially my sexuality which I don't really own and am trying to figure out. Not so much preference, but owning being a woman since I just hid behind my anger all my life. 44 now, never been in a relationship and consider myself celibate and about 6 emotionally.
I don't understand how any of you all get even get past the first meeting. I'm all social and then shutdown after or get so viserally overwhelmed that I get major anxiety or shut off and act tough or angry.
Maybe I'll write my memoriors
