  • Feel for you, please reach outband get support

  • NAS10665 said:
    • Avoid alcohol, it is a depressive
    • Eat healthy
    • Go for a walk, run or any sport you enjoy. This release happy hormones and also helps the body remove those that cause stress
    • Prioritise your needs, do something that makes you happy
    • Get some good sleep if you can, try this site for help on sleep hygiene sleepfoundation.org/.../sleep-hygiene
    • Speak to someone who is close, you trust and will support you. Suicidal thoughts are a huge burden to manage on your own

    This is good advice. 

    Over the last 18 months, I've been diagnosed with both ADHD and ASD. It's called comorbidity and I'd never heard the expression before until a specialist doctor discussed this with me.

    The diagnoses for both ADHD and ASD has helped understand the way I think and behave. I've since reduce my alcohol consumption and try to eat better. The doctors have presribed a few pills to help manage the ADHD and some of the other symptons I was having. They do seem to help.

    I have had some bad episodes, too. You have to know whom you can call for support. In my opinion, talking is the best medicine.

  • Update time it's been almost 48 hours since the overdoes and I've written a letter to my boyfriend expressing my thoughts and feelings. I have also named my depression Hyde after the story of Jekyll and Hyde. 

  • Hi Rach91

    So sorry to hear you are feeling so bad, I am struggling too, the autism team who I have finished with told me take myself down to A&E if things get really bad. Relationships are complicated, I have always struggled with them. They are a 2 way thing, and you don't have full control over them. Sounds like you are really frightend about breaking up with your boyfriend. I hope you can work things out with him

    Hi Rach91,

    I also suffer with ADHD and Aspergers.

    I also suffer with anxiety and depression, so i know how hard it is to go through mental health problems, as i'm sure alot of people do on this forum.

    does your boyfriend know what you go through/experience?

    Would you feel comfortable to talk to your GP or a counsellor if you have one about it at all?

    Moderator : apologies to Jademh73.. I deleted you original comment by accident. I have posted it again above.
