9 year old takes hours everything morning to get ready for school

Good morning all I'm hoping I can get some advice! 

I'm 22 and recently been diagnosed with ADHD and ASD. My 9 year is on the pathway for an ASD diagnosis. I'm really struggle currently. 

Every morning is becoming a war zone in my house and it's draining me. No matter what I do I can not get her to get ready in the mornings. We have tried offering tv time, gaming time, waking up earlier, getting ready the night before literally everything. No matter what we are always rushing to the school gate 

I'm trying my hardest to remain a calm and collected parent but I'm not going to lie I'm snapping more and more at her and I hate myself for it Sob we had a baby 7 months ago so I'm at maximum level of overwhelmed daily. I do always apologise to my 9 year old if I snap but we are literally constantly butting heads woman facepalming 

On top of all this I have EDS so I struggle walking which is part of the problem if she ends up being late we have to work the 15 minute way which causes my agony Sob 

Any advice on how to help my daughter in the mornings please I'm at breaking point
