My fricking head will not switch off...
I have an appointment at ten. That means leaving at nine, getting up at eight at the latest...
It is now quarter past three. In the morning.
Why do i even bother trying. I dont mind it doing this most days, its not like i do anything except rot away at home anyway but when something important needs doing it gets worse. I dont even know if lack of sleep will affect the test... Probably make it worse. I get even more foolish when i have had no sleep. Also very horny too, strangely. But thats not relevant i suppose.
I cant risk missing this appointment. I've waited too long for it already....
Now its twent fivey past three. Fuck. Four hours forty minutes to go...

I wrote several paragraphs describing my reaction to it in the thread entitled 'Qb test....' in the Symptoms/Diagnosis section, feel free to read it.
Suffice it to say: I did it and probably will get a diagnosis worse than i thought but most of all i am angry. I cannot stand intellectual weakness, especially in myself.

Hey oldwolf I absolutely relate to this, it seems I screw up my sleep when I'm too interested in something and can't stop myself doing it for just another hour or as you describe when I have to be up early for something, like my assessment last weekend, then I just can't seem to get to sleep at a reasonable time and if I try I just don't sleep, I don't find myself being anxious just unable to sleep so I ended up looking damned stupid at my appointment and feel like I screwed it up by not being able to say what I wanted to say properly and constantly forgetting my thoughts half way through! Do others with adhd get this, I feel it might be quite a common problem?

Aye, its always 'just another ten mintutes' or 'once i finish this section'... I dont even stop when i should be getting food or when i need the toilet.
Either that or my head simply will not switch off, always random things going through my mind over and over, repeating endlessly until i get angry at myself and do something to take my mind off whatever it is, which then causes further problems and results in even less time to sleep or do whatever i am supposed to be doing.
Bloody annoying!!
