Q: “I’m a 52-year-old single mother who has had raging ADHD her whole life. My son is 16 and does not have ADHD. Unfortunately, I have modeled poor ADHD-related difficulties to him for so long (such as disorganization, impulsivity, what I call domestic ‘failure,’ and weak communication skills), that he has learned, and uses, these behaviors himself.

My question is, how can I stop modeling these debilitating struggles to my son so that he can become who HE is supposed to be, instead of some version of me and my ADHD?” – SingleMomWithADHDHi SingleMomWithADHD:I applaud you for being so open with your struggles and goals.

If You Have “Crippling Anxiety,” You May Have An Anxiety Disorder
I’ve had anxiety since I was a small child. It was manageable until I was 16 years old, when my anxiety became crippling — i.e., way too much for me to handle. I began to have daily panic attacks and developed a phobia of using public transportation. I was scared to take trains and airplanes. Even taking the school bus began to scare me and I’d find ways to avoid going to school. I was eventually diagnosed with panic disorder.

“I Don’t Need to Be Fixed!” Epiphanies of Self-Acceptance from Adults with ADHD
“Not long after I was diagnosed with ADHD in my 30s, I was surfing the web and found others like me. Reading their stories made me cry buckets of tears. I was not alone. I was not lazy.

All the Joys I Never Knew I Was Missing
Two months ago, my doctor told me I had a respiratory infection (which my anxiety told me was definitely COVID-19), and I haven’t left my house since. I spent the first three weeks lazily in bed. Then my state locked down, and the panic followed shortly thereafter. Though I had nowhere to be, just the thought of being trapped with no choices, no options freaked me out. My instincts told me to get the hell out of there, but alas ‘flight’ was not an option.

5 Ways to Practice Yoga, When Chronic Illness Means You Can’t Downward Dog
I was a yoga teacher who could no longer practice yoga. Going upside-down would increase the pressure in my head, concerns about hyper-mobility reduced my ability to stretch and, to top it all off, I was told to cut down my activity for while because of concerns that I might have an exercise intolerance. It felt like I was being pranked — this could not be possible!  Not only was I being asked to give up my favorite hobby, I was losing one of my main coping mechanisms.
