Advocacy
I was in the train station on Friday, waiting for the train when I looked over and saw a woman reading a book about ADD. Instantly, I walked over to the woman, sat next to her and said, "I noticed the book your reading, are you ADD also?" No, this wasn't the most appropriate waay to spark up a conversation, but I was too excited. Bottom line, after I scared the piss out of her, and gave her some non-scary information once I calmed down, she was thankful, and I found a calling. I want to be an advocate. Not just for ADD/ADHD, but for mental illenss. Doing alot of research, and I put a pause on Meetup.com, but I have HUGE THINGS COMING UP...Keep you posted!
