Hi Leo-child

 

Thankyou for posting. With anxiety its really good you have art and music as passions because you can immerse yourself into that and shut off the world. My wife and I have two miniature fox terriers and they are our world at home, so affectionate and playful. In fact the pup plays hide and seek and I've never seen that ever!.

 

How long have you known about your ADHD and anxiety? Whats the hardest part of having those illnesses?. Do you find other family and friends find it hard to relate to you?  I know I find that this forum is best to write into if I'm not feeling 100% rather than try to talk to family or friends because I have illnesses that aren't visible. When I broke my leg and was in a wheelchair they were helping me all the time but when I tell them I'm depressed they dont know what to do. It's not like they can reached into my brain and pat it like their pet rabbit lol.

 

So, if you need advice or support you can post here 24/7/365, anytime! even xmas day. Then all you have to do is wait for a community champion like me or a member that can offer ideas and support.

 

Again thankyou for reaching out. And remember- the majority of people with ADHD, anxiety, depression etc have a positive side which can include- creativity, out of the box mentality, painting, adventure, music, building and so on. In fact I have some ADHD bits and pieces and bipolar and I've made a number of inventions and have built my own house and am now building my own motorcycle, a trike. So you are lucky as well, and all these abilities make you quite special.
