A hug from across the miles. You WILL be okay. You ARE amazing. 

Can't I pray to science? Because it's a faith, you know. Just ask LoBorn.

Thank God for those people who have done the research and was given the intelligence  to manufacturer that little pill. 

Glad you are feeling better.

This reminds me of my introduction to Ritalin. It's not completely ideal, and I sometimes even take a day or two off from it. But it was incredibly startling. No more living in an oblivious fog where I had to constantly strive just to notice simple things around me. No more having to choose between only pretending to listen to someone, or constantly interrupting them just to make them repeat things that my brain had dropped. No more feeling like the world is just too boring to face today. No more feeling like I just couldn't have certain conversations with other people, because I couldn't organize my thoughts well enough to communicate. No more drinking 8 cups of coffee in an evening just to focus enough and stay up late enough to get something done for a deadline.

There's been all this hullabaloo about ADHD, and I suppose I'm not totally equipped to answer the society-level questions. But in my case personally, some patterns of behavior that I'd been desperately trying to break with little progress for years, that I'd told myself were a matter of personal willpower, that were intimately tied to years of shame over failing to change... almost just evaporated with a pill a day.
