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.
