| Min, I feel that. My doctor wants to me find a new emotional health place. The last appointment I had was 6 months out...and I missed it because I was in the hospital. It's still 6 months to be seen again. |

| I'm very likely autistic, but won't bother being tested for it. At my age, it wouldn't do anything besides being another diagnosis on the pile |

| I just never got diagnosed, but my brother is diagnosed with ADHD. |

| One of my best friends has an extremely academically successful sister who is autistic. She is a delight. |
| Transformers Acres |
| My friends, who are diagnosed with ADHD, say I have it, because I struggle to focus without background noise, I struggle to stay organized, I get forgetful all the time, I constantly fidget, can't stay still, I lose things all the time. |

| ADHD is a shitshow to understand because we don't understand the mechanisms. Every neuro paper i've read has had different mechanisms. Societal expectations don't help either :D |

| lol, seems like everyone here xD I'm in the process of finally getting tested for it lol |
| Stormsong Manor |
| I just kinda internalized all the negative things my parents accused me of being |

| It's strongly suspected that I'm autistic, but I wasn't tested as a child because I was academically very successful. I've thought about getting tested now I'm an adult, but the wait lists are so long and the process sounds like a pain in the arse so I'll just go along doing my own little thing xD |

| LOL I can vouch for that Ven. I kinda knew I had ADHD but. Officially got diagnosed a year ago. |

| Jesus. I live with my sister who is expecting her first, and it still doesn't feel real. Like, what do you mean there's going to be an actual human child here in two months |

| Ven, that's good tho. I see a lot of kids struggling in school. I think I just found out the best way to teach my daughter. She learns through games and fun. My son you have to be more straight forward to. |

| Women are often delayed in getting an Au/ADHD diagnoses because we present differently than the boys, who are more obvious |
| ~Savy~ |
| I can't believe it has been that long Ven - what do you mean he isn't still just a little baby? |

| Fire, I honestly think I need to be tested. I found out the doctor wanted me to be checked. She told the doctor nope I couldn't be autistic. Honestly would have probably helped me in school and gave me the resources I need. I am looking into school for my son, so far we haven't found anything we like. I want school to be fun for him so badly. |
