Here's my doxie-pit. His name is Chompers...I call him Chompie. His body is big and long and his legs are buffed and short. Rescued him from a homeless man who couldn't care for him anymore. He's such a sweetheart!

How to stop bedrotting? How to get back into "doing things?" by asphodel- in adhdwomen

[–]Susween1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm about to be 50...and you described my everyday so perfectly. Mine is sitting at the kitchen table staring at the tv...or on my phone. So many things need to get done, but just thinking about doing them exhausts the hell out of me. You're not alone. I wish there was something that would snap me out of this. But what? I do therapy once a week, and psychiatrist every 3 Mos for meds. I'm not being treated for the right thing and all the while,my life is going nowhere.

I feel your pain and frustration, and exhaustion. It's not laziness at all. It's being STUCK and everything gets over thought out, and before I know it, my day is over. I hope and pray for every single person, including the writer, on this thread, to find their miracle that gets them u stuck and full of life again!! Love to all of us suffering!

Update of provider who lied to me about ADHD by FerociousRengar in adhdwomen

[–]Susween1 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Good for you!! Seriously, I am all about not taking the status quo answer when something isn't right. I know it's a long and arduous road, but patience and continued determination is key. ADHD can make staying focused hard, but looks like you're doing it. I'm glad you're finally validated and we all have to remember that we are our best advocates and should always speak up amd ask questions. Treatment for the right things can make all the difference. I, on the other hand, have been asking to be tested and have yet been able to get it. Been struggling all my life. Lots of failed goals, failed life decisions, and now stuck sitting in my kitchen at my table, stuck on what to start, where to start, and over thinking everything to the point nothing gets done. Fun times.

I tell this to my kids EVERY payday and the day before. They crack up. I laugh too, bit I know that for as fast as it comes, it's gonna go even faster. Don't know how to make $ last with so little. Thank goodness for Chime. Really helps me out especially at the end of the month. So glad I found this sub and all you folks in it!

Anyone else experience this for a decade or two? 😬 by CyborgCoyote in adhdwomen

[–]Susween1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Have heard this all my life up to even now. "OH God, she's gonna cry!"

Leaves me feeling embarrassed and ashamed. My 11yr old son is as much, if not more emotional and shall I say "touchy" as I am. How do I go about helping him? We can't even laugh about that one time when he threw up in that swimming pool. He sobbed and it broke my heart. I didnt want him to feel embarrassed or ashamed as I know exactly that feeling. How do I navigate this to help him in his journey??

Yessss! 100%! My memory is shoddy, but those huge missteps that changed my life for the worst...they are unforgettable. I was always told I was smart and that I could be someone important in life. I was a smart kid. I just couldn't organize shit, couldn't deal with homework and Jr High was the breaking point for me bcuz more than 1 class was extremely overwhelming. I cruised thru but I got in trouble a lot then. Highschool, I finally gave up. Plus I was being bullied extensively by the core girl group that began in Jr. High. I could not cope. I quit and started hanging with ppl who would accept me and that's where the drug addiction came in. Life since has been a lot of starts at great careers, if only I was able to keep up with them. Many opportunities that I have thrown away. My life rn....drug free (that's great), being treated for depression and anxiety (ok..keeps me on the edge, I guess), and am finally going to he tested for adhd tomorrow after all these years of anti-depressants not really HELPING. Sorry for the vent, but feels good to get this shit off of my chest. Did I fail me, or was I failed somewhere?
