[QUOTE="Giulia, post: 524584, member: 14306"] Thank you for your support. To answer to the person about self help books (I cannot find her nickname now), yup, I have ordered some and read some. It helps, of course. But on a drawback, it leads to more questions. And at the moment, I have no answer to these questions. This project of making this law change is a start for a new life, to go back to a life which means something for me. Mine is advocating. This is something I am sure now. And advocating is also fighting to make a law change. GP was right when she said : "If you didn't do it, who would had done it ?" I had no idea to what to answer, after what happened with psychiatrist. But still, I am getting now what she meant. The worst in all this is having to beg for medical care I need. We have so few resources for adults with ADHD that I need to fight like crazy to obtain them. An if you are not - or you don't look like - an average person, you have to prove you deserve this medical care from those specialists (yup, they choose who they care and who they turn down). From the three specialists I saw, all three had the same behavior (like the psychiatrist I had). One even dared to ask me to declare lies about my health for the driving license stuff. I refused, because I clearly knew I risk to be in troubles. He stated that I am a liar who wants only to boast. (my psychiatrist told me that if I declared lies about my health for driving license stuff, I would had been more normal and didn't make fuss about nothing. I replied that in case of accident, I pay and she does not. She stated that it's no big deal if I pay, because everyone does it. Darn !!!!!!!). What I realize, and am still angry about, is that I have to deserve the medical care I need. Like if I am not an average person, I don't deserve to receive medical care. This is the most disgusting situation, and I wonder how can I continue to survive in such a situation. At least, so-told-good-friends is one thing. It's hard, yes. But even if you don't see them any more, it's okay. Fighting and having to prove that I deserve to receive medical care is even harder, and even more disgusting. I sometimes still wonder what did I do to deserve it. [/QUOTE]
