Been a tough week or so. The spouse has been a bit on my case, even though she has had the flu. Not sure how she has the energy to pick on my being unorganized. I am certain it is very frustrating to the ones you live with.
I did get an appointment with a new doctor for the 24th of March. So I will hopefully get an Rx then.
I did have to cancel an unrelated doctor appointment the other day since she had the flu and there were others in the house sick as well. I could not leave her here to take care of people. Just a bit of a 72-hour thing I guess. The challenge for me seems to be re-scheduling the appointment and the related follow-ups that were dependent on the results. It seems that when one thing happens it is hard enough to try and "fix" that issue; but then everything else is related, so you need to also handle those along with all the other things that pile up.
Always something more. I know, I sound like a whiner. Just wanting everyone to know that they are not feeling any different than I do, so there are others out there struggling too. Keep your chin up. Take a breath. Take a sip of decaf (though I prefer the extra-strength coffee). Now, what is the first step for you?
Go do it now...
Here is a start on helping with organization.
This is my attempt to share my experience as an adult newly diagnosed with ADD/ADHD. I am not certain what resources are out there; but from what I can tell, many adults either hide the fact that they have this disorder. Also, many seem to hide that their children have it as well. Therefore, I thought I'd be upfront for whatever good it may do.
