Stay At Home Dad with ADD

by Jeremy
(C-ville VA)

I have been diagnosed with ADD and have been a stay at home dad for almost two years. This has been an overall great experience until my daughter began acting like a two year old. I finished student teaching and am trying to study to get college credit for two classes while at the same time taking another class. There are so many responsibilities and distractions that my schedule does not ever work. I am trying very hard to stay on task but my head spins an I feel tense and insane. There have been maybe five or so times I really yelled at my daughter and it scared me. I take Aderall. I feel resentful that my daughter takes so much time that I might not get my teacher's license in time. I would like to work in the Fall an my wife would like to stay home next year. I don't know strategy for parents with ADD raising toddlers.
