Joy of new life, yet to come

ADHD

just not normal (whatever normal is) 

Neurodiverse 

just plain different

Could this be you? 

I have recently discovered at the age of 91 that this is me. I have had a major revelation about myself, which is explaining a lot of the strangeness about my way of living. I see now that this has been going on for most of my life and I could not understand why things were going wrong.. Now I think perhaps a better word than wrong is different.

The prime purpose of this blog is for spiritual enlightenment and preparation for a life of happiness with God in heaven. But now I feel perhaps God is pointing me in a  new direction to help people with the problem above. I came across the following book which I hope to use extracts from if the author Dr Kent Sorr will give me permission. The book. . . . 

The complete

Autistic Adult Blueprint

by

Dr Kent Sorr

************************

This is Dr Sorr’s introduction ………..

You weren’t supposed to need this book. By now according to everyone who gave you advice, you should have figured it out. You’re an adult.  You’re intelligent .probably more intelligent than most people realise. You’ve been given the same instructions as everyone else. Try harder. Be more organised . Put yourself out there. Just relax.  Stop overthinking. Be normal.

You’ve tried, God, you’ve tried.

And yet here you are still struggling with things that seem effortless for everyone else .Still exhausted ,in ways that sleep doesn’t fix. Still wondering why relationships feel like decoding a foreign language. Still fighting with your own brain just to get through a regular Tuesday.

 If any of this sounds familiar, this book is for you

I will be posting on my blog which can be found at later-life.blog and also on Facebook.

My next post will tell you something about my condition and my life which has brought me to this point. I am somewhat disorganised and always have been therefore I will not attempt to separate the ADHD posts from the spiritual posts but that is not a bad thing since they are both about life and living it fully.
