Every day, it feels like I'm fighting my brain to get through the basic tasks. I have to deal with a lot of frustration and noise in my head, which makes it hard to cope with everyday life. It's like playing a game of tombola, where every day I have to pick a ball and hope I don't mess up. My brain is like a riptide, pulling me down and making it hard to keep my head above water. I have to learn to live with my ADHD and not let it control me.
I have to be more aware of my thoughts and feelings, and not be too hard on myself. I want to be able to accomplish my daily tasks without feeling overwhelmed. Sometimes, my brain gives me helpful instructions, but other times it's not so helpful. I have to learn to filter out the bad thoughts and focus on the good ones. I'm trying to be more articulate and explain how I feel, so people can understand me and support me. I don't want people to try to fix me, I just want them to be there for me.
I'm glad I can talk about my feelings and not feel embarrassed or ashamed. I want people to understand me and support me, without trying to change me. I'm happy to have people who care about me and want to help me. I feel like I can breathe a little easier now, and that's a great feeling. I'm trying to be more positive and focus on the good things in my life, rather than letting my ADHD control me.
