I just couldn’t stop.. its almost funny | ADHD Information

duuude.

i'm on meds and my husband is still fuming at every broken sentence that can speak.

i'm always ahead of the game impatiently. i feel like a total asswhole..i spelled it that way purposely. there is a time for cussing . like when i FEEL like it.

i'm feeling particularly fiesty. so he speaks and i interrupt and then he responds with a lecture about how rude i am and how he just wants to finish his sentence for once in our damned lives and blah blah is what i'm hearing and i snap..'can you just get to the POINT? IF YOU WANT TO SAY WHAT YOU ORIGINALLY WANTED TO SAY QUIT WASTING MY TIME WITH A LECTURE AND SPIT IT OUT!!!"

its not as if his lecture is going to perk my interest further.

frankly sometimes i  absolutely hate him.

i love my husband to death. but when i have to feign patience at his long ass long winded explanations it takes everything i can muster to smile weakly.

but this is the most ironic thing:

obviously as all can tell from my posting...i'm verbosively expressive! i hate adhd. im hating it today. today sucks. i am so pissy.

sorry

sumi

OKay so I am reading of my ADD symptoms and growing and learning, and have been on the look out for them. So here I am at work today and I am talking to a friend about some fustrations on his part, and I keep finishing sentences for him, and jumping forth with answers before he finishes his questions. And I think to myself, "okay stop it" but its sooooo hard, and the second I stop concentrating, bingo I do it again.

The only thing I seemed to have improved on, is appologizing when I realize how rude I just was. DOH, ack..how do I stop my mind from doing something like interupting, or jumping over someones conversation, when it almost a reflex thing to me. IF I concentrait real hard I can, but then I loose what they are saying lol hmmm

My hat is off to you people who can control this, yikes....Maybe I need to look into some meds..

Ideally, I repeat back to them what they just said in a slightly different way every so often. Unfortunately, most people don't like being interrupted every 10 seconds for that, so I just try to pay attention and sometimes get the gist of it and sometimes don't.

With my family, I just ask them to get to the point and explain that I am losing concentration. It does work on rare occasions! Very rare occasions!  What really kills me though is they don't have the patience to listen to my ramblings either but I am some way always the one at fault. I can't win!

Oh my goodness, that was me today.  I am in business with my husband, step father and 2 other partners.  And I tell you i lost it.  I said to them "Just get to the point, I dont want to hear all this noise, Just tell me the bits that I need to know then I am out of here" it was excrutiating sitting there listening to them talk about what I am sure is interesting but to me it was eeeeeeeeeeeee rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr  brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr  nnnnnnnnnnnnnn coffeee yes please eeeeeeeeee rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn yes white and 2 eeeeeeeeeeeee rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr bbbbbbbbbbbbbb nnnnnnnnnn - get the idea.  And yes I think I always know what they are going to say - but just to make it more interesting I try to focus on what they do say and try to notice the little bits that I would not have expected - then this distracts me from the conversation and I start questioning my psychic abilities after all and ...........
