Reasons to help your kid understand ADHD
Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. I hope you're enjoying my posts as much as I like writing them. The reason I'm writing about parents helping their kid(s) with their ADHD is because I wish someone would've helped me understand more about it when I was diagnosed. And to be honest, nobody told me or said anything about it until I was 17 yrs old! All I knew is that I have a learning disability and that's it. I made so many impulsive mistakes in my life it's not even funny. I look back at all the mistakes I made and I'm suprised I got this far. I never took a second to think about the consequences before jumping into a bad decision head first. If I had thought about the outcome on all the shit I've done, my life would probably be a lot better than it is now. If only I could turn back the hands of time I would in a heartbeat! The biggest mistake that hurts the most is that I pissed away my dreams of being sponsored in skateboarding and I don't think I'll ever forgive myself for that. I also never graduated high school and the fucked up thing is I sat in the bleachers watching the class of 2001 (the class I should've been in) students gradute because my girlfriend at the time was graduating also. Let me tell you this It was hard holding back the tears watching that and on top of it feeling like a huge idiot. And I'm not blaming anyone or pointing fingers. All I'm trying to say is I wish someone would've helped me understand why I do the things I do and to think of the outcome of the choices i make through life. If only I made the right choices I'd have something to show for it like a diploma or a sponsorship for skateboarding and because of those bad choices I made I don't have fuckin shit to show other than telling someone I fucked up A LOT. Now I live with a shit ton of regret and I beat myself up everytime I think about it or see kids skateboarding. Everyone tells me you can't live in the past and to move forward. And I know it's not healthy or good to live in the past but for some reason I can't get over it that was the only time I was truly happy. So to those parents out there that has a child with ADHD please help them understand the what and why's of there actions. So when they get older they'll have more control over those impulsive decisions. Don't let your kids live in regret when they get older it's a shitty way to live take my word for it!
