    Hi Jonny,

    A few things. One is with mental illness (I’ve seen it in my family, and I’m not saying you have it) stress can trigger episodes. You are under a lot of stress with school, the job, the gigs, detoxing and the breakup. I have a feeling when the summer comes and classes have ended you will be a little better.

    With the ADHD, can you find an awesome doctor? If I have a headache I take an aspirin. With ADHD, certainly you can take something harmless. That’s where the great Doc comes in. And you can tell him what you wrote above.

    Get recommendations from friends. If you hear glowing review and the same name keeps coming up, that’s your guy.

    Good Luck,

    Inky

    Hey!! I totally and completely understand a lot of what you’ve said. I experience a lot of those things such as fear of mental illness, unsure of whether to stay in the relationship, depression, just life. I have ADD which is a little different but my thoughts jump around. I know that yours might do that too. Are you on any medication? Have you gone to a therapist? There’s nothing wrong with going to a therapist. Or if you don’t want to do that, then look for self-help books. Maybe ones on ADHD or self-esteem. Don’t give up on yourself, I think happiness is out there too. You just have to keep going. I think what you’re going through is normal for someone with ADHD or depression. I hope that you find what you’re looking for in life !
