So, after 43 years, I have been diagnosed with ADHD. They said that I have been able to compensate for so long because I'm smart. Now, I have started taking medicine for it (see yesterday's very similar Collum Lune). Maybe I'm not as smart as I used to be. :)

You're definitely smart lovely Heidi, very smart. So glad your head is echoing silence - is the peace wonderful or oddly lonely?

Thank you, sweet Anna! It is still a little of both. Also, the first week I took it, I cleaned all of the crevices in my kitchen with wooden skewers. That has to be a metaphor for something, (That, and I just realized that "crevice" is also a way to say "butt crack." That's not what I mean.)
DeleteYour intelligence is manifest -- and attractive.
ReplyDeleteHI Ally! You are too sweet! And I loved the pink boxing gloves!
DeleteI became ADHD after a car accident....my brain is always chasing rabbits...oddly enough writing has been my salvation. It is the only time I can really focus. It is great there are echoes of quiet in your head. Of course you are smart... :)
ReplyDeleteHi Susie! It is kind of amazing the difference. My brain feels so still.
DeleteYou are very intelligent =) I was diagnosed with severe ADD at 19 then they thought Epilepsy now they think PNES PTSD with some type or Dissoaciative Disorder either way it seems my brain is on extended holiday
ReplyDeleteHi Yves! At my daughter's school, they teach the children to "kiss their brains." So here is a kiss for yours :x
DeleteThat is quite the discovery after 43 years...intelligence does help us adapt...glad for the benefits of medication...your writing is still excellent.
ReplyDeleteThank you Eusebeia! It is getting harder to write as the days progress. I think it's because I am actually working on creating something than just spewing emotional vomit. I don't know if I like it yet. :)
