My babies are Tiesto and Ty... I rescued Ty when she was just 2-3 weeks old from a parking lot on campus when I was in college. There was a cat and kitten project on campus because the campus and area had somewhat of a cat colony. It was not unusu...

About me & Relation to ADHD or other condition?

I've had ADD/ADHD my whole life, I managed to make my way into adulthood in relative normality through things I now recognize as my own set of coping mechanisms adapted from the situation. Of course it would have been a lot easier if I had had a treated and structured childhood but I also think that knowing very little about what I was going through and already having a crazy life forced me to create those coping mechanisms. FYI- apparently I lost this ability somewhere..

I made it through high school and college, at times barely. Since college i've been struggling with the effects of ADD/ADHD and I am currently a leaf in the wind. The depression and anxiety that go along with it have been debilitating in recent years.

This is the first site I've joined that has anything to do with ADD.. Hoping to find some solace and friends in a world of choas and lonlieness....

Feel free to drop a line..

A leaf in the wind... haven't heard that one in a while, but I can sure relate to that at times. I have inattentive ADD myself and congratulate you on making it through high school and college!

Thanks for joining us!
