Talkin of not wantin to be alive!Rae: I can relate to how Neldy feels at times. When I go looking for a job. I have really no skills.This makes life harder as well.Today it takes 2 incomes to make it mostley.Everything should be less money. Moms should be able to be with kids.Raising a Special kid is expensive. My inlaws don't see that. They say I am the problem not him.They pay my husband $40,000. yearly and tell us this will have to do.He can't/won't go any where else to work. He doesn't get it either.With inflation I hope we won't get homeless.They just take care of what you can afford to do.I had already had to tell our son sorry do to ins. we can't continue with private speech therapy. They don't understand.He said to the therapist why can't you be my teacher.We still keep in touch though.This broke my heart. When with her made huge ganes.Any help welcome. I know that I have been told that whenever I say I wish I was dead that its just ADHD..but really it ain't thats how I feel...SOmtimes I wish my Mom never brought me into this stupid world wit the prob that I have... ty krobb I needed that Y'all please go back and read "Good points and hints" on the parents board and get a new perspective on this. You don't have to accept the idea but I think you'll see yourselves very much. ADHD is not bad. You have a place in society where you would be the strong ones and the others would need you.
Neldy - I am having a hard time thinking that your thoughts and wishes are specific to ADHD. Yes, that's definately a problem, but there can still be joy in life. It's very possible that I just don't understand, as I am here for my ADHD son rather than for myself. When he was on medication, he would sometimes tell me that he wished he could die, but it was rare and we always sat down to discuss what was happening and what had made him feel that way. Who do you have to talk to about your feelings? Will your mom listen? Maybe a friend, or a mentor at school? Rather than put this off to adhd, figure out what is going on in your life that upsets you this much. You don't deserve to have those thoughts. Like I said, I may not really understand, but I want to encourage you to believe that you are indeed special and that your gifts are important to this world. You just might be the one to start the butterfly effect. ![]() Neldy, life does get easier as you get older, just always keep focussed on the positives about yourself and there would be some. Be proud of you successes no matter how small. And I doubt your mother feels that she wishes she never had you. ADHD does suck, but it is also a gift. My sons psychiatrist told me that the brain is still developing at 30-40 years and this is when the brain learns to become more focusses. I am 33 and I am just starting to feel a little more competent and I am really learning to like who I am. I contribute a lot to the world, not in the standard sorts of way, but I fill in gaps that the normals dont. Light and love to you girl. Rachael |
