Love is lovelier the second time around. .... la la la!
My best day ever was when I got my diagnosis for Attention Deficit Disorder. My entire life I had battled that with the confusion, depression, and missing the mark so often. It was a difficult way to live. But I married well, had kids, did what other people did .............................................................................................................................................
When I got the diagnosis at age 50 I found out what it was like to ... be like other people, complete tasks, work my computer really well, do a bunch of fancy stuff on the computer, not get lost when I went around the corner, correct my paintings, write with some ease. I can't say how wonderful it was. The medicine and the understanding that went with it gave me MY BEST DAY EVER. (Maybe that should be the name of my book!)

ADHD in boy --> are the ones who REALLY have trouble. They drive their mothers and their teachers crazy. A lot of times their medication is taken away and they go way weird. They are the ones who do sometimes go to drugs and crimes. There are Chiropractors and holistic people who say they can fix it. They can't.
If our world continues on, of thing on my wish would be that this condition is understood by doctors and the right medication is prescribed. Doctors can diagnose it by the age of two or three.
I have no idea whether young children should be prescribed medication. If I were prescribing, I'd wait till age 13 for boys. I might not even notice it in girls. (And I have it!) However, my prescribing psychiatrist saw it in me in about half an hour! I'd been looking for about 50 years! xxx Because of my age I could only take Adderal for 5 years ... if only I had been diagnosed at age 30. IF ONLY.
I was in an online group where ADD/ADHD was discussed. Boy! that got place got hot. I really can't see serious medicine given to young children. They were fighting for it.
I don't know what would have happened to me if I'd been prescribed medicine as a child. It happened like it happened.
What is needed for ADHD kids is space to run, an build, and paint building, and grow plants, cook good meals, give care to animals, compose rock music and/ or symphonies, etc., run with the bulls ... oh, you know. If they're really bright (and most are) they could be channeled into physics and math classes very early. I'm glad that it's understood now ... however, it isn't understood everywhere.
I started an ADD group in this little town I lived in just before we moved to this Big town. I just wanted to put a little ad in paper but what happened? The reporter and TWO guys with big cameras came to take my story! It was almost unknown in the little town I lived in ten years ago. There were no psychiatrists, even. Hey Hanford! Hi there!
The group stayed small. And then ... I didn't follow through. : )
I’ve had many wonderful days but what comes to mind first was my last birthday, we went to participate in a live performance of THE PRICE IS RIGHT. We had a blast and I got my picture taken in front of THE WHEEL!!!!!!!!!

I would have to say the day I met my gorgeous Maggie.Something went "POP" in my brain & a little voice told me "This is the one Boyo".I kept making excuses to run into her & much to my satisfaction realised she was doing the same thing.The rest is history.It's been a roller coaster ride & a good life.

What first came to mind was the day my middle son (the new daddy) was born. It was the best experience of the three...my cousin's wife was the attending nurse and he was delivered by a midwife in a hospital room that resembled a regular bedroom. The births of my sons are the highlight moments of my life. My eldest was a preemie and went directly to NICU; my youngest was labor induced, which resulted in severe back pain at the startling onset of major labor after 2 hours of peacefulness. Very special days, indeed, but not necessarily "pleasant"...
