After reading the thread on ADHD (which I thought was eloquently written and a credit to its author) it occurred to me that embarking towards the path of subhood I may well have my own challenge.
In my early 20s I had a virus called Encephilitus. I was in a coma for 6 weeks and it took me around 2 years before I was fully independent again. I would not say fully recovered as it has taken its toll in a few ways. I have an awfully bad short term memory and if over loaded with multi-tasking I get mental fatigue (basically exhaustion) which means a task can take a while to complete.
With these qualities in mind, I guess i'm going to have some stumbling blocks, which may not be desirable to a potential dom. Should I reconsider my involvement and just enjoy the friends I have made that have become dear to me, or is there a level of tolerants that will allow for my problems?
This is a sincere question and I would appreciate any honest input.
They are stumbling blocks, but just that. It may turn a few away but I haven't seen that happen on this site. I listed my problems at the top of my profile, I have gotten a lot of questions but no negativity. In fact I have received incredible support from nearly everyone! Not just support but also ways of coping and different medical approaches. It astonished me, writing my 'stuff' was very very hard & I was scared of the reaction. Silly me. The reaction was 99% good.
Worry less, enjoy more.
