my name is Jennifer...i was diagnosed with ADHD, mild autism, bipolar, servere depression, ODD and PDD when i was eight years old. I had problems making friends and i still do...i have better relationships with kids younger than me...meaning i get along great with my 17 year old sister's friends than i do with people my own age...i do have a boyfriend who understands and he loves me for who i am...i am on different medicines and been on meds since i was diagnosed at eight. i recently was diagnosed with anxiety and paranoia. i was even told when i lived with my mother in FL by my therapist that all the medicine i had taken since i was eight may have caused memory loss...i cant remember to take any of my meds and i have been off them for a long time because of that. Does anyone know a way i can remember to take them? Anyways back to the problem of not making friends...all my life people have either lied to me, were backstabbers, taked bad about me, or pityed me. i decided when i was 16 years old not to trust anyone because they are liars and hate people like me...but then i met my wonderful caring boyfriend Joe and i knew that he was a trustworthy person and the only one...I also was told that my brain at the time i was eight years old was the brain of a two year old and that they didnt know what it would be as i got older...which is why most people find that odd. i also was deaf at one point when i was a toddler cause of alot of ear infections as toddler. finally the doctor told my parents they would put tubes in my ears and remove my adnoids and tonsils which not talk to much....View Thread
