I have struggled all my life with what now appears to me as ADD: Never working up to my potential, (as they said), living with chaos, not putting forth any effort to maintain a friendship, alcohol abuse and addictions. (luckily the 10 yr stint I did with alcohol ended when I got married and had kids.)
I never realized that my brain is working overtime, I've never had anyone else's brain so how would I know?
How do I admit to myself and my family that I need help
and there really is a reason for all of this? I know I can't live like this any longer. What do I do? Who can diagnose this? A GP?
