Cleaning 101: It helps to be a little OCD when you have ADHD

Posted on February 27, 2010 at 3:35am 4 Comments

I have recently discovered that my tendency to organize when I feel overwhelmed from my world is me applying my OCD tendencies to cope with my drive toward distraction! So for all the moms out there coping with a stressor like an overly messy house which occurred because you couldn't keep track of your house let alone the thoughts in your head, do not distress!

Jessica,

So nice to meet you. Yes I understand what you are saying about homeschooling. There are so many reasons why I homeschool I can't even start. We chose the K-12 program, which is public school at home. Mainly because it is free, everything is supplied that I would need to teach my kids, there is a teacher I can talk to when ever I need and everything is planned out for me. If things aren't planned out well for me then I become obsessed with it until I am so exhausted from it I don't want to touch it again.
I have yet to actually be diagnosed with ADHD, however I did go to a Phycologist recently and she is the one who said she wanted to persue that more for me. I thought she was crazy until I looked it up on line and my mouth dropped. FINALLY there is a explination to all my craziness. lol. And to top it off my oldest daughter is just like me. Anyhow, I look forward to getting to know you better. I am relieved to know there are other people out there like me. Thank God!!!!

In Christ,
Dena
