should be an interesting day | ADHD Information
Well, the adderall was a wee bit strong for him, so he was a little out of it all day, but that didn't stop him from spending a couple hours in the moon bounce at his cousin's party. I was prepared for the worst, but it actually turned out to be a pretty good day.
He did seem really irritable this morning (I don't know if there's any connection or not) and tried to start an argument as soon as I'd walked out of the bedroom- he'll usually give me until I've had at least one cup of coffee. He just didn't want to go visit my sister and her new baby- it's a 2.5 hr. drive, so I couldn't really blame him, but he seemed happy enough when we got there.
Of course, now his med bottle is covered with stickers so there will be no more confusion.
yeah i really liked adderal and tramplines .
nearly broke my neck but nothing tipping that queasy anxious feeling into a double upside down somersault tokick my willies around.
i do similar things its round its brown wait thatsa diabetic meds croak cough cough.
so anyway he was strong and vibrant in the bouncy thingand so fragile.
the other day my mother showed up to collect a project she dumped on me at the last minute .
she was un announced and demanding . i wish i knew how i escalated so fast.
our boundaries are well defined and when she came in with those ways of expressing her frustration wether i wanted to hear them or not i was walking up the stairs yelling and cussing and finnally walked back up to her a said sorry ill call when its over ,
i now wont work with her on any project. thing is i as the one who got her to cross the line and then blew up at her with bs excuses.
it took a couple of days but i calmed down and apollogized .
it feels so weird sometimes .
in definately not her favorite and she mostly has contempt when she's around me but just wont leave me alone or to me own will.
and its my mothers favortism that triggers me. like no matter how offensive my siblings are with me she always says "well you know how you are "
but have in my life time stuck big squares in small round holes and totally amazed that i didnt notice the problem. i still do
Anxiously awaiting your post of how today went for him AND you! [QUOTE=jaderock54]
My son accidentally took my adderall instead of his focalin. Nevermind that I keep them on seperate ends of the shelf we keep the meds on, or that his are always in the same place next to his multi-vitamin that he takes at the same time, or that the pills are different colors.
So it should be an interesting day- we have to go to the bank and then my nephew's b-day party. Two things that are absolute hell without meds, so I'm crossing my fingers that the adderall will help at least a little.
Of course, now I feel like I need to keep my meds some other place, but the reason that they're where they are is because it's right next to the phone where I will see them are remember to take them. Arghhh. . . it's always something.
