I still can't believe I'm going to a shrink. I only call her that because I am unable to say the other words. I never thought I would see the day! It's a good thing though.
The question on the table... well not-so-much as a question for me, but for the shrink is
am I truly ADHD or something else all together. Honestly I've read far too much about it to be the least bit doubtful or skeptical at all, however I am not completely closed off to other ideas....although she'll have to do a lot of convincing. I'm talking pie charts and multi-dimensional graphs here.
I think I'm going to do it sans coffee too. Show her the real me not doped up on caffeine (which actually helps tame the crazies a bit... turns out it's a stimulant and it stimulates the part of my brain that is passed out in bed while the other part..s? of my brain are out running at a normal speed... now I know why I'm so addicted to coffee... hehe) so we'll see how THAT goes! Lucky shrink lady... not really.
I also get to see my reg doctor about these STUPID EFFING stomach aches I've been dealing with for a month now. Couldn't take them anymore, so in I go. I'm thinking it's lactose intollerance myself. After my dr said my cholesterol was way too high I decided to do what I've always wanted to do and that is to go vegan (zero cholesterol). NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS WHAT-SO-EVER! No dairy no eggs no meat. Well THAT craziness lasted a week or so. That shit was hard!!!! So I added some dairy and some fish back. Then started my tummy aches. Makes sense to me! We'll see what the dr says tomorrow!
ok its 1206. i need to get my crazy ass in bed!
SLEEP SWEET!
hmm we have a lot in common. I am going to see my therapist tomorrow(anger and anxiety issues, from a vomit phobia!!) and i am currently (well i think anyway) lactose intolerant. got it mid-way through pregnancy with William. so i got a question, from what you say in your blog-you want to find out what you are...do you have to be anything? are you sure THEY(whoever they might be) arent the ones with the problem, are you the one with a problem with yourself...just sayin'. if it aint broke, dont fix it. and on the lactose or GB thing...lactose intolerence sucks, but you can cut out non-cooked lactose and be pretty much ok depending on the severity. I get stomache cramps and major trips to the bathroom for hours and hours...the GB thing on the other hand, well let me give you a site. Either way, you gotta cut out the fat. period. cheese, milk, etc...good fats are ok in very little amounts...olive oil, avacado, etc.

my mom has had stomach pains in that same area for the last couple of weeks, so i have been looking at it. i have many non-dairy recipes should you want some. it also helps lose weight to cut out lactose. I think its either gallbladder stones, or kidney stones...or well i hate to say this, but an ulcer or something similar. i really dont think its lactose intolerence...lactose is just the first thing because the fats from those items irritate whatever it is. my mom thought she was LI too...then the symptoms changed. she doesnt know what it is yet.
ha you think YOU'RE crazy, its 12:42 am and i MEANT to get on MY blog, but im on yours...babbling off my uneducated advice...hahaha i only worked with a nutritionist for a year. anywho, hope things go well tomorrow i will be at madigan getting ID's for the boys and then off to FAME for some chat with an educated crazy person...aka...therpist. must be crazy to listen to all of us!!
too funny. i had no idea anyone commented on here. I don't even know how to respond. will you get this, i have no idea lol!
ReplyDeleteI went to the Dr after hearing my friends story about ADHD and started asking questions. It really does fit me my whole life. Put's a lot of things in perspective. I tested high on the ADHD scale. It just means I have one part of my brain that is working overtime and another part sleeping so they don't match up. Drugs like aderol and concerta and ritilin (sp?) wake up the part of the brain that is sleeping. i could go on and on with the symptoms, but instead I'm going to point you here: http://www.adultadhd.net/
I have every single one... not just a little bit but a lot and since childhood.
ON the tummy issues. who knows. i'm going to see a tummy dr soon. so we'll find out more then. I'm staying away from dairy for now. i had 2 lacaids and 1 thing of yogart today just to test it. i'm fine so far. pretty much i only eat fish and egg whites for animal products. the yogart was non-fat so i'm thinking that is why i didn't get the tummy ache. i'm leaning towards gall bladder from all that i've read.
i too have a puking phobia lol!
i got the comment, cuz i checked back, i havent figured out how to get notifications on my blog either...FB has spoiled me. i wish i could have drugs for my problem...lol but i dont believe in bandaides for problems.(not saying yours is, mine is a learned anger and control issue, and underlying causes)
