Dana, I'm so sorry this has happened to you and your family. You've been such an uplifting presence in our lives, so please know we will keep you in our prayers and in a spiritual embrace! Breathe, my friend - that's the first step.
Fondly,
Jer
I read your last message with a lot of interest and particularly, your interests for art, music, literature and spirituality because I like the same things ! I think, this is due to all our sufferings. How a artist could create if he didn't suffer in the past ? If he was well surounded ? If he didn't struggled ? Impossible, to my mind.
Well, I'd like to ask you another question for my book :
1) How did you learn you had ADHD ? In wich circonstances ? In wich ways this diagnosis changed your life ?
Thank you for wanting talk about the gift of ADHD with me because, there is few ADDers who see ADHD of this manner but I understand them...
I'd like to know your history, from your childhood to your current situation, as an ADDer, and I could write it in the book I'm presently writing. It's about the gift of ADHD... if you are agree, of course... It could help a lot my future readers to keep hope in a better life.
So, firstly, I'd like to know :
How did you live your young years, as an ADDer child and teenager ? What difficulties did you meet so ?
I'm also a member of this community and a French Canadian author who's presently writing a book about the good sides of ADHD and I particularly searching testimonies of positive people who can see the "gift" in it.
In reading your profile, I thought you could be one of these famous persons. So, if you are interested to share your experience with my future readers to help them to live a better life, please contact me to the following address :

Have a nice day and don't forget : The sun shines for everybody

I knew it! Hahaha! That's so awesome that you're in Seminary. There have been times when I thought that my calling would lead me to seminary... but I'm don't think that's what He has in mind for me, at least not now. I'm feeling a very strong pull toward helping others who have ADD - which is why I'm pursuing a career as a coach. I haven't had any time today to get my thoughts down... but still send me some questions if you want to - I'm sure that will jumpstart me! My email is nerdymommy@yahoo.com if you want to email me direct. I'm so excited to have met you!!!
Hi Jer... I received the message you sent to the Faith group and I'd be happy to talk to you about my faith experiences, and how they have helped me in dealing with everything in my life, including ADHD. BTW, are you Episcopalian? Only asking because I am, and one of the things that we are known for is not being particularly comfortable with evangalizing! Your "frozen chosen" description fits us well LOL... Send me a message and let me know if you have any particular questions you'd like me to answer about my faith, or if you'd just like me to write whatever God drives me to write :) Have a fantastic day!
