Hi Susan47
Thank you for words of wisdom.
When he said stupid, I thought of idiot, like slow comebacks, like indecision, like not using common sense, like being inadequate of socialization.
I do have a hard time keeping up w/ jokes. I begin to get scared when someone says, "Here's a joke I just heard." My mind goes quickly into 'tune out mode.'
I usually become aware of what should have said, .. AFTER .. have inappropriately responded.
I've mentioned ADD, and test scored high. I brought it to the attn of several Ps. They come and go in Value Options. No P acknowledged there could be any validity to my having ADD.
So, as understand, just reading can 'build up or re-build' our brains.
Do you think reading can also help ADD?
When have time, I would appreciate it if you would suggest a book you think might hold my attention.
bestwishes, cf
