help with diagnosis- is there any point?
hii, so back in september i (18F) got referred for ADHD to HARROW HEALTH- people said they were good so i chose them. they ended up losing my referral, idk what happened but i called them after 3 months or so, they said they haven’t gotten anything and said that my gp had to re refer me which they did.
now im getting a triage call in july, which sucks bc the whole point of this was to help with my A LEVEL resits.
i’m also getting seen for potential OCD, my thoughts have gotten a lot worse over the years tbh and only just managed to get appointments set for it.
i’m also doing this completely on my own; my parents aren’t really educated on mental health, and ive been in and out of camhs since i was 12. every situation just ended in them pretending it never happened and that was just with anxiety/depression so idek how they’d react to this
but i’ve just seen my notes on my app- whilst i still have the call, they put something about them saying that it’s not the suitable path of action?!? i should look at a different pathway or soemthing. i’m really worried now bc im scared that they’ll just reject all the stuff i’ve been thru. whilst a lot of my problems stem from my mental, i have had stuff in childhood showing development issues ie speech therapy in primary school until the age of 8, i currently ahve extra time. even would suck my thumb until the age of 11, so idk how i can prove this tho apart from the extra time - which is still in place now for my resits- since it’s from ages ago. not to mention my processing skills have always been bad, but have plummeted even more recently.
so idk if it’s worth going though now i really can’t handle another rejection ik it’s sounds stupid but i’m worried that they won’t take me seriously and refer me to discharge. i’m trying everything i can to help myself but it just seems like there’s no point
