B: Awww, mom! This daylight savings thing means I have an extra hour of school! *whine*
Me: No, it means you get an extra hour with me at dinner, baby…
B: Oh! ok!
*giggle*
Then K began describing the important details of DST and the real time gains that we had so that B further understood what was happening. I love my children!
HI,
I am kind of embarrassed to say that I need someone to talk to. I was diagnosed in ’03 and have been in treatment since. I’ve found that leaving the “treatment” world means dealing with normies, or singletons, whatever we chose to call them, and for the most part, they don’t understand me. Is it just me? I am just now going back to work, and I feel like an alien.
It’s not just you…and I hope that things are going well for you. I am sorry I missed your comment on the blog for so long. I recently updated and it wasn’t showing.
If you still need/want to talk about this, let me know.
Best wishes!
Not just me. Thank you for responding. My team did well at the job, which was seasonal only. I did not really have any success making friends. I did my job well, but that was all. I had hoped to gain some vital “social” experience. It seems to me that my parts can hyperfocus independantly, but multi tasking isn’t working. I mean… work vs socailizing. The other girls there didn’t like me much, but I overachieved at my job. I wish I could find a balance between being a good emplyee, and being a good coworker.
thanks,

So when you are stressed with your multi-tasking (in public) it makes things harder? Can you successfully multi-task in a setting with less stress to practice?
I have the same issue with friendships…the balance is hard to find and I sometimes overachieve or simply become a really bad friend. I want to be in the middle somewhere near the “good” category.
Hi, I do not “know” about the things I read on the blog from me just now, but, I am interested in talking to you (again.) I am in a different place now (atlas)and feeling a little confused. I am 7 years in to treatment, and still not perfect. I think………..You may be like me?
I would love to talk to you further. I was just now notified of your comment here. Lost in the email somehow, so please, do get in touch. I believe we are somehow “alike”, agreed! I’ll attempt to email you, too.
