Can somebody help me?

I have been struggling a lot recently with everyday life/life in general. I question if I am ever going to get better... A friend of mine recently told me she has traits of Austim. 

I read up on signs of autism and it sounds a lot like my day to day life and now I am questioning if I have it because I experience majority of these signs everyday. 

I'm unsure whether to talk to my Mum about it, because whenever I talk about mental health with her she brushes it off and I'm afraid she will do the same this time and not listen to me. Do I need to go and speak to somebody about how I am feeling to get a diagnosis? 

I am struggling with everything lately and I need help on what to do... Can anyone give me any advice?

  • Maybe it would be a good idea to talk to a GP if your mum keeps brushing off what you're saying. 

    It can be a lot harder dealing with something when you're in the dark and don't know what's going on, supposing there is something like Autism which is related to what you're going through.

  • That's what I was thinking... I'm just a bit nervous as it seems like an answer to me to why I am feeling/acting like this as I have been questioning myself for a long time. 

    I would just like to clarify why I have been feeling like this, so I am definitely looking for answers. This feels all so new to me so I am very anxious talking about it to somebody if you know what I mean?
