Let me start this off by saying yesterday was a REALLY good day! I mean, I guess it wasn't the best day ever, but some things finally started making sense. And I made a deadline. I do have a few questions to ask about what happened and what was said, though. Just to get another view of perspective.
First off, I got my stitches taken out. Which was cool.
Then, I went to my therapist, even after missing my last appointment (which I think was around the time I had the symptoms mentioned in this thread (http://www.recoveryourlife.com/forum/showthread.php?t=228200)). I mentioned said thread to him yesterday, and that kind of been the bane of what we talked about, as well as whether it could have been anxiety. Before I revealed more to him, he said he was tempted to have me scanned for ADHD. I then mentioned to him that my brain tends to shut down completely when exposed to stress (especially high stress), and I fall asleep.
He said it may be a form of anxiety that's a third option of "Fight or flight" which he described as "Freeze". Kind of like a deer in the headlights before it decides or figures out it can move, and then proceeds.
I'm wondering if anybody else has had this, or I guess if anybody knows exactly how true (or even common) it is. Or if this could be ADHD?
