Behind the Medicine
I have not had a moment for a long time. Even now, it will be short. But since I have been away, I have had to start and adjust my son’s ADHD medication. On top of many other obstacles, this is one of the hardest. Simply because while he and I have support, it’s not from people we see every single day. In our home. And I am frustrated beyond belief. I am trying so hard to continue to encourage my son who, if you have a child with any kind of diagnosis along these lines, is not always very easy. Will he react well or will the world fall apart? Did he eat what he was supposed to or did he sneak something I won’t find out about for a week? Should I worry that he wants to spend time alone? My social butterfly? Those are just in the first 10 minutes of him returning home from school. Continue reading

Glorious in Panic Mode
Squirrels could be a distant cousin from the ostrich. At least in my world. Okay probably not but it sounds good and I am going with it. They can both hide their heads from the world when they feel like it. Something people with spur of the moment anxiety cannot do. Even though we want to. And it’s better than biting someone right? I just don’t feel like trying to get all the dirt out of my hair. Selfish me, I know. Continue reading
