Hello,
I hope this is the right place for this post, but I’m looking for some advice. I’m feeling really lost right now, and no matter how much I try to push through, I just can’t seem to focus.
I’ve struggled with anxiety and depression for a long time, and I’m currently going through a particularly difficult period with my mental health. I am also dyslexic.
Last week, I had an appointment with the mental health practitioner at my doctor’s. During our conversation, she suggested that I might be neurodivergent—possibly autistic and ADHD. She mentioned that these conditions are often overlooked in women and that there’s still a lot being learned.
She gave me some resources to look through and said I could come back if I wanted to pursue an assessment. While she was kind and supportive, I feel a bit overwhelmed—like I’ve been handed a lot of information to process when I’m already struggling. Now, I’m not sure what my next steps should be.
If anyone has been through something similar or has any advice, I’d really appreciate it.
Many thanks
K
