Is it Autism and/or Mental Health?

I’m struggling with many aspects of life. Being female, Autistic with mental health issues, parenting, anxiety. Any women feeling the same?

  • Former Member I’m finding medication is no longer working. I really wish the support was sufficient, but it’s just not adequate. 

  • Keep trying with different ones - don't give up.  SSRIs have never suited me but I take mirtazapine now (not saying it will suit you - just saying don't give up).  I also have aripiprazole depot injections which I tolerate fairly well along with the mirtazapine - I tried some stuff that made me feel awful prior to aripiprazole.
