When my family members ask me if I’m going to finish school it makes me feel all alone because I don’t know how to explain how I feel and not seem like a failure for not following through (at this point its partly the poor economic status and my degree ties in with the construction field – I don’t know if I should start all over in a different field or just finish it and have a great amount of educational debt).

I totally agree meds, counseling, self help, and awareness are not enough. But when I visit this website I can guarantee someone here is experiencing what I’m feeling at this moment – when I scroll through responses that seem to echo what I’m feeling it no longer makes me feel so alone.

We are all co-creators of the future.

Adhering to this premise, all of the posts that can be found at “Imagine Into Being” are intended to co-create the future. These “imaginings” are wonderful additions to the possibilities of what is to happen in the future. Every thought ever created is part of a grander collection of thoughts. The more times a thought is believed and energy it garners (by way of more and more people believing it), the more likely it is that this thought is going to occur. This is the perfect reason for this blog.

The world is aching for more positive and intentional thoughts to be added to the collection. This blog seeks to do that by contributing a number of intentional and very different possibilities for the world.

Indeed! Thank you for you comment you pointed out some excellent facts. Also, if you would like to watch a movie of hers, check out “Mean Girls”, but my fav goes even further back to “The Parent Trap”. It’s fun to watch with kids around.

Everyone has demons to fight – its called the human condition – ADHD or not. LiLo is no different, whatever her diagnosis. What makes it hard for people to feel sympathy is that she has resources at her disposal that should make life easier for her. But with success at such a young age and enough money to get into trouble with – some things are a lot tougher for her. It is hard to show a lot of sympathy for someone who looks like they can have everything they want. There’s the curse of jealousy!

What I don’t understand is why people choose not to look at the gift/positive side of people with ADHD. They even want to make that look bad. Why does everything have to have a bleak outlook for us always? It does us more harm to make us us look like a lot of incompetent imbeciles and damaged goods. It is as close minded as saying we should just pull ourselves up by the bootstraps and get over it or grow up!

I believe it is only with celebrating our successes and appreciating our gifts and working in our areas of strength that we can build the self esteem that will make us strong enough to put our struggles in perspective and work on them for what they are-real difficulties that need to be identified and addressed so that they don’t bleed into destroying everything good about us. It would be such a shame if this took her down so that she couldn’t work again.

To see the good and the bad helps us to know where we need help and support and where we can have the confidence to shine. And there is a gift inside us all that needs to be shared.

I have never seen one of her movies, but as people say she is a great actress they have seen her gift publicly, so now we get to see her struggle with her demons publicly – as we so love to do in America.

I hope she will stay sober long enough to get help to identify her problems and deal with them so that she can once again shine. We are all a work in progress!
