Hello all.....I'm a 35yr old male, married (barely she hates me) and have 2 young boys. I've recently found decided to step up and take back my life. Hoping to find some insight and answers to some of my challenges in my recent life I've been leading.
I have a good job, nice house and have both a beautiful wife and children; yet for some reason I can't get myself under wraps to appreciate any of it "properly".
I originally was diagnosed with ADD/ADHD when I was a child and had great success living with a crutch for many years (until I hit high school and being ADHD was nonsense lol). After deciding/convincing myself that I didn't have any issues I some how fell in love with drugs (marijuana and hallucinogenic - mushrooms & lsd) which seemed to mask my issues and allow me to function. I went to college and got 2 degrees and started my great career of being a landscape architect. I re-met my wife (new her when I was much younger, lol 10yrs ago), got married, bought my first house and had children. Great, amazing, wonderful right???
Well yes however due to my inability to over come my reappearing issues, living has become very challenging to say the least. I currently suffer from numerous ailments including; anger issues, lack of focus and attention (wife, children amd work) depression, feelings of not being appreciated, weight loss, loss of drive or energy, inability to get along with others around me that I love and care for (primarily my wife) conversationally combative and general lack of care for others.
Help me!!!!!!!! Wow that sounds bad lol and im hoping that with the help of others I can get things back on track and become once again the man I want to be and enjoy my beautiful life I have some how been blessed in creating.
Well this leaves me here and find in this group.........do I belong here?
I currently do not have and Drs, prescription or plan for starting my journey of healing. Any tips, direction, first steps, or guidance on how to get started would be greatly and forever appreciated.
Oh and my name is Chad and thank you for letting me be apart of your group!
