[quote=Anonymous]Her mom has a "borderline personality disorder" diagnosis. Now at 19, she has on own accord asked to see a psychiatrist for possible hyperactivity/ADHD. She says when she's hyper, her mind is "burning" and can't sleep or focus. I always thought she was able to leverage her hyperactivity to become active in HS, to be involved in multiple organizations, including leadership positions, while maintaining high stats good enough to get into top SLACs. For her college applications, she couldn't start the application process until a week and a half before college apps were due. And in college, she absolutely can't start 10-page essay until the day before the due date. She's totally disorganized, and is constantly worried she'll fail in college and in life. What am I missing? Any parents or any one with this experience and what we can expect from professional counselling?[/quote]
