Wow.

I'm glad I posted then, because I didn't want to upset you further...

Also good to know I wasn't imagining things!

What is the radio show? I'd love to hear it.

FTR: Getting a diagnosis was--for me--sort of sad because I saw how it had affected my life in ways that I would have handled differently had I known. But after a little while, it was a relief to know that there was a reason some things bothered me more (or less) than other people and that I wasn't lazy, crazy, or stupid.

Know I UNDERSTAND some of my personality "quirks" and although I have not shared the diagnosis with too many people (most wouldn't believe it anyway), the few people I did were ones like me, having a hard time of things and not knowing why.

It helped a lot with the spouses too, who thought their partners were not tuned in on the same frequency, usually fixated on hobbies/interests...they learned it was not a personality flaw or a lack of effort... just being "different"

I can tell you that my Apsie/ADD friends are the most fun with great collections of all kinds--and they know every little detail about every item; vintage cars, bicycles, instruments.... it's crazy. But we like it. smile

Let me know how it turns out for you, OK?


(Glad you're not p*ssed. You're frustrated enough right now.)
