With childhood ADHD you never know what attitude you are going to be getting.

What attitude am I going to get when I wake my daughter up? Am I going to get my happy loving sweet caring daughter? My angry, hangry, grumpy daughter? Every time I wake her up it can be so different with so many different variables. You just never know.

All day at school she is normally great — usually a little chatty. But hey what girl isn’t? BUT if we are home or out and about during the day. Where is that girl? I don’t get that same attitude. She tries and sabotages anything we are doing. Anyhow, anyway.

Homework. I. Hate. You. An everyday struggle. We barely get you done. No matter when we try to accomplish you. We can try right after school. We try on the way home. We try when we get home. It never works! Again I hate you homework. No matter how simple the task. It will always take us twice as long.

Moms. Dads. I see you. The amount of times I have cried — had panic attacks — wanted to give up — all while trying to switch her medicine has been more than I can count. I am so so thankful for my support system. Without them I’d still be stuck in my bed.

Paizlee just know I am trying. I love you
