It seems that even after someone decides to start working with their add and related problems, it takes a long time to dig out of the hole and there are all of these mild set backs along the way. It's hard.
I think that it can take a few years to try to get a life together and "the process" is sometimes so frustrating.
It's not quite like the medical community used to indicate - start taking the medicine and all of your problems will be resolved. Maybe that works with some kids - but, not adults - not usually. The medicine makes it possible to better focus, complete tasks and think before doing now but- as many of you know - doesn't fix a lot of the other problems.
Focusing on goals seems to help me get through some of the bumps in the road.
As I'm moving forward, I'm wondering whether or not to apologize to people. Of course, I realize that having add or depression has not been my fault but I think the way I have blamed certain people and treated certain people along the way was my responsibility - kind of like an alcoholic not being responsible for alcoholism but still feeling remorse for the behaviors ...
I wonder what the rest of you think about this idea of apologizing to people.
