I am new here, and I am glad to have found this site!
In school, they called me "outgoing"...then after graduating...it became 'bothersome' and 'annoying'. I should have been diagnosed when I was young, because all of my report cards basically show the symptoms of ADHD in neon lights (constant fidgeting; won't sit still; won't stop 'visiting with her neighbors'...etc.)! Alas, I was diagnosed after high school. Relationships have always been a huge challenge; keeping jobs is impossible; and staying on task often slips through my fingers!
However, I am always able to keep up with my kids and their friends. I am spontaneous, and try to always have fun! Projects are incomplete and shoved into closets all around my house...and I make plans for a cross-country trip every week that we have yet to take...but I am starting, finally, to accept me for who I am! I just wish my mother would have been able to do the same! Her loss!!
