Hi.
I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety 3 decades before there was any mention of me being neurodivergent. When I was diagnosed with ASD and then ADHD-i I felt a brief sense of relief and then a weird feeling of grief mixed with anger. My depression is the dominant feature of my life, I just don't feel happiness or even positivity. I've been told that this could be something called Anhedonia or that I could have alexithymia and that I am experiencing happiness but I just don't recognise what I'm actually feeling, either way it's soul destroying.
I've been trying to get help through the NHS but I just not getting anywhere and it's really frustrating.
Has or does anyone else experience this and if so, have you found anything that helps. With the other things going in my life right now I really need a win right now.
Anyway thanks in advance.
Hergé
