    That's my middle name! I've read many posts that hit home with me, but Evelyn Polk Green's really prompted me to comment. I have several physical + mental problems besides ADHD, + feel overwhelmed most of the time. Right now I've been out of work for over a year, had several major surgeries in the last few years, + am doing mostly nothing but laying on my back! I still feel overwhelmed! It was so encouraging to hear her tell how she can carry on 2 jobs + still have a positive outlook, + be able to work with her co-workers + have a life! I keep hoping that eventually I will be able to get back to a normal life, but the years go by, + I seem to get nowhere with my Doctors + my attitude, which is mostly despair now. I feel so stuck! Help!
