""""We clash a lot and overreact towards each other,but we also have a very strong connection between mother and son. We love each other very much"""""

Bless you Raymond....yer words touched me....I so relate to this...

Our son has brought me to my knees at times....his behaviour is somewhat strange, but the love between us, I know, has saved him from becoming isolated.

Very recently he said to me "Mum I would be nothing without you...you are the love woman, and the most loving woman I ever met.... Oh my, a little boy with such an old head on his lovely Scorpio shoulders.

I never laid a finger on him Raymond, even though at times he pushed me to the brink. I have shouted, but even then I will apologise profusely and tell him I was wrong to do that. And do you know what he will say to me "its okay Mum, I know how you feel inside about me....the shouting is okay, you are a very kind woman"......

Oh dear God....I never knew it was possible to cry and laugh so much...

Love and blessings be on us all....

The Positive Aspects of AD/HD

Most descriptions of AD/HD focus on the negative aspects and neglect to mention the advantages to having AD/HD. They include:

* Creativity
* High Energy
* Intuitiveness
* Resourcefulness
* Tenacity
* Warm-heartedness
* Trusting Attitude (sometimes too much so)
* Forgiving attitude (sometimes too much so)
* Sensitivity
* Ability to take risks (sometimes too risky)
* Flexibility
* Loyalty
* Good sense of humor

Not all persons with AD/HD have all these traits, but to the extent that there is such a thing as the AD/HD personality this list of positive qualities describes the advantageous side of the AD/HD personality. It should be noted that the problems AD/HD causes can be so severe that these positive qualities never gain full expression or recognition. http://www.drhallowell.com/resources/articles/positive_aspects.html

BTW...I am diagnosed inattentive type ADHD.
I also have a history of Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. ADHD,Dyslexia,Dyspraxia tend to be comorbid. 30 percent of Dyslexics have ADHD. Some educators believe ADHD is a rightbrained learning style like Dyslexia.

Sun,Mercury,Venus in Scorpio
Mutable T-Square of Moon in Pisces in 6th square the opposition of Saturn in Gemini in 9th and Neptune in Sagittarius in 3rd
Mercury parallel Neptune
Mercury conj Sun/Neptune midpoint
Mars in Aquarius in 6th
unaspected Uranus which is also my oriental planet

Today's schools are more for the leftbrained types. Their teaching methods aren't fit for us rightbrained types. The teaching method are mainly auditory sequential,but most the students actually are visual spatial learners. There is serious education reform that needs to happen.

Being rightbrained person in a leftbrained world can suck,but it can be a gift.


Bump. I can relate to this, too.
