Diagnosis and help
Hello
I'm waiting to be diagnosed with ADHD. (I'm waiting pretty long because it's hard to put me in the line)
(My therapist is saying it also can be AuDHD)
It really affects my life and I feel like I need it to understand myself better and others to know that I have it for sure...
Even if I don't get diagnosed I have problems like people with ADHD and I don't know how to deal with them on a daily basis.
Like trouble with focusing or just problems with controlling emotions. (I'm pretty sure it's coming with ADHD because my therapist said it is 😭) And it is so hard in school for me to sit in place and just listen to the teacher.
I had a problem with ed because of my low self esteem and not being treated like a normal human being in primary school. I guess being so susceptible to such words is also part of ADHD.
And not understanding emotions well and what is important not understanding them while loving someone. It is hard for me to be like a normal person to my partner cause I know I feel differently... I don't really understand how to talk or I'm doing what I'm not supposed to do while talking about something important. Being impulsive is also not helping in relationships cause sometimes I say something I didn't really mean to and I hurt them... (They really love me and we are really good together but I don't wanna hurt them in stupid ways like this)
I think not everything but some things goes with autism and that's what my partner and my therapist is saying.
So my question is
How can I deal with it before getting my diagnosis?
And how does this diagnosis works? (Cause I'm scared I will get meds and my friend told me that this meds go with depression :( )
Thank you for reading and I'm waiting for responses 🥰
