help......... | ADHD Information
Dino, you have a very special gift, there is nothing wrong with you. I'm inmy 30's and have ADHDi, and reading your post made me see myself
when I was your age and I think I can help. The rest of the world is always
trying to find ways to make you and I like them. The world wants you to
go with their flow, and go at their speed, and do things their way. The
key is first realizing there is nothing wrong with you, and understanding
the benefits to your disability and using that towards your advantage. I'm
not saying block out what your therapist is saying, I'm saying do not
worry about it. You will be ok, just know that there is nothing wrong with
you. Brennan

Help.........
At behavior therapy i try to pay attention and listen . But my brain can't stay focused and concertrate. I am not thinking about anything else. My mind is blank and i want to learn and listen to my behavior therapist and focus and pay attention and everything. What is wrong with me . I can't get the information that is being told to me. I want to so badly to get what i am being told. I hate that my brain is this way. My brain is going on overload and too much it is. My behavior therapist said he will cut things up what he is saying in therapy more. That is nice that he will do that but still I am tired of having this problem and I want to be able to learn and everything. I think i had a thought just a sec. ago but i forgot now. I hate this when this happens. I am on ritalin 20 mgs 3 times a day-brand name. I take for adhd and it is mild case and combined type. I also take risperdal and zoloft. I am so tired of these problems. Why am i having these kind of problems? It makes me wonder. I will be seeing a neurologist to find out if there is something wrong with my thinking.
I seen my old therapist what i had in high school and i told her thank you and that i am not mad at her anymore and know she was doing her job by telling my mom what i said in therapy and now that really made her happy that i am not mad at her and didn't know i was mad at her .
My therapist had to verbally get me to go to the front and trying to get me to go get a appointment to my next appointment for therapy and it will be January 7,2008 at 1:00 pm. 
(hugs).
I think you'll get answers from the neurologist and January 7 isn't that far away.
Make sure you write down all questions you have for both doctors so you don't forget anything.
Hang in there. It seems like you have help in place but it is taking time to work. Also, if you have an emergency and you need to talk to someone, call your old therapist again -seems like she is still on your team.
I wish I could help. All I can do is send you my best hopes that you will find the help you seek and some sort of peace.
