Thank you for reply and sorry for my respons is late.
I am on luckier side in Japanese AD/HD,cause I have my doctor,who is specialized for adult AD/HD.(too many people cannot get diganocis AD/HD or not.
early years in Japan,(late 90's..)some people including me wanted to know what is our problem,so,like other country,we talked social network on web.I got positive feeling but
I cannot act good,especially almost social network on web is for ADD-ADHD and Asperger-sindrom(of course I have some good friend who has asperger) and there parents.for me,It was so comfused.
After 2 network I joined was collapsed,I decide to join English-baced network.
When we share our feeling,People always who takes too much( me --;)feel scared cause no people try to speak.so,I overwhelmed and talk stupid things.try to carm nerves,and it always went bad.
talking about professionals..no other professionals other than my doctor,for me.
(again,this is lucky side)I have to do it myself,till I find my AD/HD mate.
"AD/HD and Japanese"is bad combination,for our (self-cynic :P)law,"Do the same thing".
Terry,I don't want to negative,I am thinking.I did many failure,even went TV show with my room's video,and magazine,
...Now I am thinking.

Monday, August 04, 2008 at 03:07 PMI have to add..
still I think,at first I have to put my problems on the plate and think.
I can see still too abstract things,I can't say"I need a help to solve this!."
cause I don't understand what is "This".
I need more time,please.I will make these one small things.

Monday, August 04, 2008 at 11:25 PMHi Kaori,
Are there any support groups for adults with ADHD in Japan? If not, maybe you would consider starting one. I know that Sari Solden (author of Women with Attention Deficit Disorder) visited Japan a few years back where she did a presentation somewhere and met many wonderful people and clinicians. So I know they are out there and probably would love to have a group where they can meet and connect.
Just a thought.
Terry

Monday, August 11, 2008 at 11:40 AMHello,
I think I khew the person(maybe translater,good hearted person)who invited Sari Solden.
We met earlyer time in Japanese-AD/HD and AS community(Now I think that was a heaven for newborn)
We grew up and woke up baby's dream,and the community (leader was not a translater)is still there.but actually broken.once its leaders had nearly-crime mistake.
Terry,I afraid to join or begin Japanese Group.when I join,I cannou figure out why,people depends on too much.long-long telephone call,visiting(sounds good,but..)
I thought "help and helped,what a good thing!"but when I really need a help,people gone or reject or told me "You say too difficult thing,I don't understand".(with Japanese smile)
And they need me a help.I helped without understanding what I can do and what they really needs,You can see me having broken mind,too overwhelmed,comfused,
I was not having this kind of comfuse before joined Japanese community,
Japanese not suit for community.we are so immatrure ti make a group.
I always said "You're strong''smart''You will do'(non-famiry people)
and "You can do,I cannot".
At least now,no Japanese group.I am under enoumous srtess and my like is mess,I want to fix my life,which I can wash my cloth or can work like before or,can brush my teeth.
or you told me,I am afraid,my English is so hard to understand?

Hi Kaori,
I read your past few posts and I'm sorry about the problems you are facing. But here at adhdCentral, there is no reason to apologize. We want this to be a safe place where people can feel comfortable enough to share their feelings and to feel safe.
Are you getting professional help to deal with all these things on your plate?
Terry
