Hey,

If you clicked on this topic, then you must've been fully convinced that there's a reason why you're impulsive(for some) and can hardly sit still for a required length of time. Or why it is that your mind is always whisked away to some daydream or fantasy and you just can't seem to concentrate on what's in front of you.

I'm sure you've gotten tired of the often well intentioned but ill informed advice of others who simply say "try HARDER", not knowing that you've tried EVERYTHING".

If you're like me, then you must also have a hard time keeping to schedules, and always running late. Always chasing the clock but can barely keep up. People probably think you're a slacker or you're just not bothered, been accused of that on may occasions, but they don't know that we perceive time differently.

Ever wandered into a room sure that you were in there for a reason, but can't seem to remember what it was? Well this happens to me very often. I also tend to quickly forget which way i arrived once i get to a new place. This is because our poor short-term memory retention. And that's why we may have intended to send an important text but suddenly find ourselves playing candy crush or doing something else. Surfing the web for a particular thing only to find out in the end that you've opened dozen tabs. And the list goes on...

Truth is all these may sound not so serious to many people around us, most times they go unnoticed or under-noticed if could say. But you know how impairing they could be to living a quality life. Believe me, I've felt the full brunt of it and I still do. I've been knocked on my ass by these "faults" (or so i thought) one too many times to remember. And my life has always felt like a perpetual chore to put things in order for as long as i could remember. Ironically I'm in this stage again

I've struggled to be "normal" but always ended up learning the hard way. Truth is I'm not, my mind works differently and I've got to learn ways that i can cope. But i can't do this on my own. I need the experience and knowledge of like minds. I need to know I'm not alone. Reaching out to others like me isn't something i can pass on, it is of urgent necessity. I want this thread to be a place were we could unburden ourselves, and seek advice without fear of judgment or condemnation. We're all in this together! Let's help ourselves grow

Did some research online. From all accounts it does seem a plausible treatment. But for now it's only being touted by a few, rather than being accepted by governing body. I'd like definitely look into it someday, but honestly, for now it's not a viable option for me. But, thank you anyways
