Wow! Thanks, MrsNOP! I read the two articles and I would have found them funny if they weren't so true. You're right, not all of the symptoms/annoyances are true for me, but many are. It makes sense to me that there could be a connection between ADD and hypersensitivity.
I think my in-laws used to view me as the Princess and the Pea, LOL. They came to accept and love me for myself a long time ago and for that I am grateful and fortunate. cac once described me as delicate. Only thing is I'm 5'6", usually weigh between 140 and 150, and have big boobs. When I pointed that out he said, "Delicate is a state of mind. I find it endearing because it is what makes you, you."
Being a SAHM has definitely increased my feelings of being rushed and not accomplishing anything, and of restlessness. Small children are very distracting and can be overwhelming to a person like me, so I struggle with that quite a lot. But I know it is only temporary and I think it's worth it. S4 seems to have a lot of sensitivities, so sometimes we're both overwhelmed.
I'm off to do something with S4, so I'll post back later after I do the self tests.
