What is wrong if being organized is giving you the tiniest feeling of contol? Especially when dealing with a monster like cancer and a loved one. Ive been grieving my father for 5 years... and he is still alive. Thanks to a ruptured brain aneurism...
There is no right or wrong. What is right for you could be totally wrong for me. I also like to be organized in advance. Unfortunately, that rarely happens. I just got married less than a month ago to someone I have been dating for almost 18 years...
TIggger , I just wanted to say sorry for your loss I just lost someone really close to me . I took care of her for a year and half . And now juist found out yesterday that my grandfather is not going to make it . So I will have to deal with that l...
There's nothing wrong with feeling whatever it is that you are feeling. Pretending we don't have the feelings that we have simply doesn't work. Can't go around it, gotta go through it...if not now, it will follow you and bite you in the ass later....
Thank you, Bryan for that link. That is a beautiful post.
I had not considered your statement, "I tend to think that we ADDers have been on the down side of events so often that we pretty much come to expect them and in effect try to protect ours...
Hi Tigger,
I am sorry to hear of your loss. It is never easy and if there were a perfect way to cope, well, I haven't heard of it. Yes, there are suggestions, there are ways people have found that have worked for them, but in reality each person ...
I know, I know. I haven't been around since forever, despite the fact that ADDer World is firmly pasted in my Bookmark Bar and I get updates every week. Let me try to explain.
It all started when my Mother died unexpectedly last August. By that t...

Trying not to hate the holidays
For reasons that I have never understood, I hate Christmas. That goes back to since forever. I simply do not like this holiday.
I was the middle of five girls growing up. My parents did the best they could with what they had. Sometimes, that wasn't much. Somehow, I learned to associate a strong sense of guilt with Christmas. It comes back every year whether I want it to or not.
For the first time in easily eight years, I am going home for Christmas. Not because I give a rip about the holiday b… Continue

NerdyMommy said… - Thank you for your prayers, Tigger... my faith is what keeps me going as well. I'll be praying for you as well, that you find the joy and the peace that this Christmas season holds for you and for all of us. Whatever you decide about seeing your family, remember that God is with you and let that comfort you. Blessings to you!!

- Hi Tigger! What a pretty pink profile page! Congratulations on the breast cancer survivor!!! Wonderful!
I used to volunteer with the American Cancer Society for the Look Good Feel Better Program. Have you heard of it? I am a Licensed Cosmetologist and I volunteered my beauty services to teach skin care and makeup techniques to female cancer patients who were undergoing chemotherapy and/or radiation. It was very rewarding.

- Welcome to ADDer World Tigger! Congrats on overcoming the cancer and best of health to you. I personally do not think ADHD goes away for anyone, but that's just my opinion. We can learn to cope and develop our ways of thinking to meet our needs and desires. There is no reason why we should feel 'lesser than' others simply because our brains work differently.
