ADHD and Sensitivity Gifting
by Carla
(Mountain Home, Arkansas)
I'm not big on writing so I'll just list some things that have happened to me in my life.
Diagnosed with ADD w/inattention at the age of 40.
> Was put on Adderal and kept a job for 2 1/2 years, a record for me.
> I felt a whole lot more confident on it.
< I was driving - a bit faster than I should have been
When what seemed like a dark cloud over came me.
It was so overwhelming I slowed down. Just ahead was a sharp corner and as I got to it there was a cop car and another car sitting in the road. They were just talking to each other. I hit the brakes so hard the ABS went out. If I hadn't slowed down, there would have been a bad wreck. I surly felt the Lord was watching over us that day.
< I was setting out side by our barn, and a jet flew over. I got this odd "feeling" of a plane crash. The next day or 2 there was a horrable plane crash on the news.
> I get these "feelings" sometimes.
> I can feel other peoples moods.
I know if they like me or not.
I know when someone is just not feeling there same ol'self. (Tired, sick, etc...)
I sometimes know if someone is a bad person.
(I got a bad feeling about a guy in a mortgage loan business. My Boss said he was an ok guy (My boss kinda new him) About 2 or 3 days later, My boss said I was right about that guy, there was an article in the paper that he had been arrested for child pornography.
> I remember in school I always stared out the window instead of pay attention to the teacher.
> If I get into an argument with someone it just stays with me for days or weeks, depending on how bad it was.
It's all I think about.
< I can not sleep because my brain just will not stop!
I have pretty bad depression, I'm dyslexic, Have these "feelings, and sense other peoples moods.
> I much rather be with my animals.
> I am more up set about an one of my animals death than a close relative. (I feel bad about that too).
I think just in the past year I have learned about being "Sensitive".
I could go on for days, But I'll spare you.
