Scared for the Future.

[Codebox42]

This is something that happens a lot to me where I often get lost in thought and tend to overthink things. Being 24, I should already be in a position where I should be able to do most things people do. But rather I can't because of the aforementioned problems of my ADHD. It's quite frustrating and saddening to say the least. Especially since I've been trying to get help the past couple months, but haven't had much luck. (Maybe May could be different?)

While thinking I always fear my life will go nowhere, that I'll always stay the same always being assisted by someone else. And it scares me to think about because It feels as if I'm wasting life and the last thing I wanna do is waste life. (I start crying when I think about this) So many things that I want to do or accomplish, but haven't been able to do/experience any of it. Aside from currently being a University student. Which at times can also be a hassle. I'm always under so much pressure to do well, I always get stuck in situations somehow... I'm also scared in having any type of profession very late in life, and the one I'm going for I always go back and forth on. I'm also always looking for friends as well.

Tell me do any of you ever get scared or get overly worried about anything with a tendency to overthink?

Obsess in thought? Sure! I beat myself with my own fist all the time--figuratively speaking of course! But you should never be afraid--the good Lord never intended for us to live in fear. Fear, anger, covetousness are things of darkness. Instead, be in the light, be brave and show courage in all things and situations. It isn't always easy, but you are made to be a champion! The success of your life is not attaining a high paying career, or aquiring the most things. Rather, a good life is enjoying the moments, our friends, our family on this journey of life--and laugh often!

of course for me I always get scared in my childish fears. in things that other people don't even thinking about. worrying and stress is part of adhd life and you got to learn how to cope with it.

the best way for me to cope with it is to plan ahead for stressful situations by writing them down. like lets say if I'm anxious to sit in the class room next to someone ill make sure to arrive the first one and sit all the way in the back to avoid people.
