- Is Constantly Being Late A Sickness?
QUESTION:
Dear Dr. Heller,
PLEASE tell me, is it a sickness??? I am always late, to the point of losing my job and failing in my relationship!!!! I don’t know what to do…
Thank You.
ANSWER:
It’s not a sickness, although it will cause lots of trouble in your life. People with attention deficit disorder can have a huge problem with being late because they are so unfocused. You can find the official criteria at http://pks.947.myftpupload.com/AD-H-Dcr.htm. Other diagnoses may be present as well, and the screening test may be of use to you in this regard. Listening to Zig Ziglar’s tape series will be very helpful to you as well. It teaches you the basics of getting every part of your life in order.
