ADHD-the relief of being diagnosed is so much less ferocious-than not knowing and losing family/friends
one of the greatest days of my life-was when i found out-having been diagnosed of
dyscalculia (i was 31 at the time) that for the diagnosis gotten-it truly stop cold: the belief that i was bonified crazy, damaged goods, couldn't change-you name it.
how i got "discovered" of my having trouble with some cognitions and such-i was in a triad training course-of learning how to do (dry run 1st time) lay counseling.
it wasn't painful/ferocious for me to find out that i was with dyscalculia
it has been that if i didn't find out per diagnosis that i was with dyscalculia-there's
good chance that i wouldn't be here now-because i would have been so spun out
from life-not knowing how to be better than just "functional/normal". so my friend in the
moment of clarity-was my educator-superseding in my behalf to help me-when i had no family member do the same-and they had know me longer:(
well now adays-i desire to be a catalyst to assist others in liason-to gain help with not only getting diagnosed-but as well-get support with new bring-it-on of life
turning out quite sweet:) surely to be continued:)
