Reclaiming My Childhood Focus

As I've been reflecting on my life, I've started to ask myself some important questions:

• What was going right in my childhood that made me able to focus on the important things better?

• How can I re-create that environment now, in my adult life?

• Do I have ADHD /ADD?

These questions have been weighing heavily on my mind, as I recognize the need to better understand the nuances of my neurodivergent wiring.

As a child, there were times when I could focus well and thrive. But as an adult, I've found it harder to recapture that sense of clarity and purpose.

The idea of getting tested is both scary and intriguing to me. I'm worried about what the assessment might reveal. But I also really want to understand myself better and find solutions that will help me succeed.

I know I'm capable of so much more than the daily challenges I face now. If there are ways to improve my brain function and focus, and use my strengths more effectively, then I need to explore those options.
