Hahahaha @ArraDreaming . I'd be interested to know how he manages school next year. I wonder if there's an element of ADHD - we can only wait and see?
Anyway, I'm hopping off soon. I'll catch you tomorrow.

@Shaz51 I’m still here happy to keep chatting I won’t be sleeping any time soon
yeah I have it, diagnosed as teen though, although no doubt had it my whole life before that.
will be interesting to see if junior Jay5 has it (he is also technically my step son too shaz so not genetically passed down by me, if that’s a thing?)

It’s not an easy thing but with the right support it can be better, so many people have it these days I wonder what the increase is my partner works in this space and she said the amount of people seeking adhd diagnose is huge and increased by so much
I look back on thibgs I did as a kid pre and post diagnosis and go yep, it’s exactly what you’d read about all the traits
Won’t go there tonight but also had a tonne of trauma to contend with so who knows if my behaviour was adhd or coping or both @Shaz51
