I am so sorry that your Dad's camera was stolen. People with ADHD need stuff to remind us of people, so it's doubly hard to lose the stuff. But like you said, your Dad is not the stuff. Stuff has a tendency to wear us down.

Thank you, Elsie! I guess you’re right - those of us with ADHD need stuff to remind us of people. I like the way you put that. It takes the judgement off me and explains why I do something. Thank you.

I have the same with any stimulants like Adderall, heart palpitations even when I was younger so I had to stop

Yep. same here. in addition, Adderall started me pulling out my own hair. and it's been a tough habit to break. I break it for a while then when I am stressed out, I do it again. Sigh.

It's rough. I'm so sorry you're going through that.

Thank you so much, Jane! <3 I’m sorry you can’t take Adderall either. :(
