Personal Experience: Knitting as a way to deal with ADHD, OCD and other disorders.

Are any of you experienced in dealing with "disorders" like Depression, ADHD or OCD? 
I've been working at getting mine under control, whatever it is.
I'm going to try listing the benefits. 
Kind of a "count your blessings" exercise. 
This may take several days and many postings. 
I don't expect to get it right the first time. 
(And you have no idea how hard it is for me to let people possibly see something that isn't perfect and finished.)
