Another ADHD

Help me to focus
Please teach me through my sense of touch
I need hands on and body movement
I need to know what comes next

Please give me a structured environment
where there is a dependable routine.
Give me an advanced warning
if there will be changes.

Wait for me, I'm still thinking
Please allow me to go at my own pace.
If I rush, I get confused and upset.
I'm stuck! I cant do it!

Please offer me options for problem-solving.
I need to know the detours when the road is blocked.
Is it right? I need to know NOW!
Please give me rich and immediate feedback
on how I'm doing.

I didn't forget, I didn't hear it in the first place!
Please give me directions
one step at a time
and ask me to say back what I think you said.

I didn't know I Wasn't in my seat!
Please remind me STOP, THINK and ACT.
Am I almost done now?
Please give me short work periods
with short-term goals.

What?
Please don't say I've already told you that
Tell me again in different words.
Give me a signal. Draw me a symbol.

I know, it's ALL wrong, isn't it?
Please give me praise for partial success.
Reward me for self-improvement,
not just for perfection.

But why do I always get yelled at?
Please catch me doing something right
and praise me for my specific positive behaviour.

Remind me (and yourself) about my good points,
when I'm having a bad day.
I may be hard to live with, and have ADHD,
but I still have feelings
and would have never chosen
to behave like I do sometimes.
