Long post on who I am.

Ruth 56 auDHD living in a neurotypical world 😕 My childhood wasn't a good start in life. And I grew up in an era where it was harsh and unkind to children.

Having a father who obviously was auDHD himself didn't help!

I was traumatised without understanding, The "naughty child" " out of control child" School was horrible to experience. I take credit where credit is due. In Primary School I was that child with a permanent desk outside the classroom 😂 I was bullied and teased by the other kids in my class. Mind you they learnt the hard way as I would Hit them and give them a mouthfull.

Being an undignosed young adult was challenging and hard. My positives are my now adult children, they are ADHD but they are doing well.

When my brain was being wired as a baby. Toddler and child. I learnt from my dad the following: How to intimidate, feel superior, critise others, judge others and everything negative in life.

Positive about me: I love animals, I'm compassionate and generous, I care and would give my last dollar to anyone.

Working sucked. But I faught for my rites to a disability support payment in 2025.

I was 110 kgs but now lost a fair amount of weight to needing surgery due to my gallbladder packing it in. Mind you I did that to myself as I was addicted to fatty food and sweets.

I now love walking with my dog and anything Aqua 🙂 I'm also a grandma to a beautiful girl who is 7. I'm from Adelaide Australia.
