Sometimes I Daydream That I Could Stop Daydreaming
My entire life I have been what most people refer to as a "dreamer." Of course, I have been referred to as several other things that were much less tame or polite too. The most painful among them being "lazy." Sadly, when I say "my entire life" I truly mean my entire life... all 46 years I've been on this planet. It was only very recently that I realized that I have severe adult ADHD.

Running on Empty
The Echo That Never Leaves Some people wake up to sunlight. She wakes up to the echo. It’s quiet at first — a faint, familiar thrum beneath her ribs — but it’s always there, waiting. The moment her eyes open, it rises like something that has been listening all night, gathering strength.

Why We See Ourselves as 'Failures' Or 'Losers'
Many people spend their life dwelling on feelings of 'shame' and 'failure', especially at work, which is a very depressing and limiting emotional place to be.

Trauma hurts…
Trauma — is an emotional or psychological response to very stressful, frightening, or distressing events. Trauma comes in different forms.

And it has absolutely nothing to do with your skills, knowledge, experience, work ethic, references, attitude, and qualifications. Your CV can be polished many times over, and it does not keep you immune from being told that you are overqualified one minute, underqualified the next.
