Hi, hmsherm63,
I am not sure how ADHD has been a blessing to you by not letting anxiety and depression get the best of you.  My hunch is that it took your focus away.  Am I right?
I had panic attacks for 20 years, but have recovered and continue to do so.  Tell us a little about you...  mary ann

Good evening,

I guess in some respects I am glad to have ADHD. Otherwise I would
have let my anxiety and depression get the best of me and would have
given up figuring out how to get into this newsgroup. But, the
hyperfocus won the battle and I made it.

I guess I just wanted to stop in and say hello. I think I have had
ADHD all my life as well as anxieties. Depression, probably there too,
but comes and goes.

thanks for letting me join in and hope to 'chat' more.
