Find a therapist to help with ADHD

From childhood, we’re pushed to decide what we’ll become and rarely allowed to simply exist.

Many women with ADHD struggle to sit at peace, but even a few quiet seconds can bring insight.

I can never relax. I think there have only been a handful of moments in my entire existence on this earth when I have truly just sat in Being. I have a vivid memory of looking out the school window as a child, sitting in the classroom and watching a dog randomly roam around the playground. I had a peculiar envy for this carefree creature. Not only did it not have to sit in a stuffy classroom all day learning times tables, but it could just 'exist'. There was no constant pressure to do something, achieve something, amount to something.

It starts young, when adults ask little children, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” This harmless question always makes me sad.........
