- I found out recently that back in 2011 , while reading some of my medical history from the GP that I was diagnosed with ‘development disorder of scholastic Skills, unspecified’… I tried to research it more and if I am right it can also lead to other things such as adhd or Autism?
My manager (I work in care) was talking to me the other week and brought up how she thinks I could possibly be autistic. My mum walked out when I was 10 years old but only two years later , my cousin commited suicide. My manager made the point that with all this going on in a small amount off time, it may have been missed.
- I’ve always struggled massively socially, just everyday things like with noise or Crowds off people leave me feeling really overwhelmed. I get quite irritated and my mood will switch fast… I try to keep my headphones on when possible but I can’t exactly do that at work which has led me to walking out a lot and nearly losing my job.
But when I’m feeling excited or happy, I’ll get this burst off energy and do this repeated hand movement over my face ( which we now call zoomies). I like to carry a soft pillow around the house or just cuddle soft things for comfort. I could go on about aha. But I’ve thinking about if I should ring the doctors? I think I need some help because I can’t keep struggling like this… I don’t have anyone that I feel will support with this so don’t know how I go about it , when talking too the docter.
