I am have been told I may have ADHD by my doctor. My husband Jerry and I do not have the money to see a therapist to see if I have it, than a doctor for medicine (we cannot afford the medicine), then a dietician. We are senior citizens and our health insurance does not cover this type of things.
I have lost all interest in trying to find things to and very bored quickly. I go into automatic mood to servive. I finding it very hard to forcus and make decisions ever since I was a very young child.
My doctor says that if I do have ADHD that it could of been from the high forceps slip delivery at birth. The doctors told my mother and father when I was born they were lucky I was not born more mentally retarded.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Please try to call Medicaid and check if you will qualify. When my husband lost his job, we immediately inquire about free health benefits from the state because of my son's existing medical condition. He has active asthma and we were in need of medicines and regular check ups. We're approved and it was a big help.
I pray that you will get better soon and your needs will be provided. Please know that we are here for you so please keep us posted. You are not alone. God bless and take care of yourself.
