Wasn’t diagnosed till my 30s….was always the kid no one worried about. As I got older it was harder to mask for sure

And then get told by my doctor that there is no way I have autism because I wouldn’t have made it this far in life. Like bro I didn’t have a choice

Can we talk about the misdiagnosis or the sister diagnosis that come with time? Like at 30 they said bpd now 15 years later it’s aud.. I know the dsm has similar criteria for each I’m just curious about the bleedovers in your opinion

My dad is currently forcing my baby sister to go through this… I’m 30 yrs old and halfway through my diagnosis and finally just now starting to understand how my brain works and learn the tools I need… But my bio dad absolutely refuses to acknowledge the damage he did to me on this count and refuses to acknowledge that my 12 yr old sister is struggling with anything or needs any outside help. Meanwhile, she doesn’t know how to regulate her huge emotions, doesn’t understand why she gets so easily overwhelmed by everything, can’t keep a friendship longer than several months, and struggles to stay focused and engaged in school, among many other things. It pisses me off to no end to see her struggling when she doesn’t have to, just because our jackass of a father doesn’t want to admit that autism and adhd are real and that he doesn’t know everything. 🤬🤬🤬💔💔💔😭😭😭

I masked for so long that my ex didn’t believe that I had ADHD despite telling her I’ve been diagnosed. Ruined my relationship when I unmasked :(

Having had two massive burnouts I didn’t even realise until this started to be a topic and my life fell apart, continued to think what is wrong with me and why I can’t stand a 9 to 5.

My audhd a$$ going off down a rabbit hole of is “white knuckle” a low key race based term or does that happen to black folks too? And if not what does happen? Nothing? A mocha? Idk. Never asked. Is there even a good way to ask something like that? Before getting to this point typing it out and realizing I shouldn’t probably say anything at all.

Yup. Then basically abandon you, Fam: “you were doing so well before, and now you’re not…. You must be on drugs.” Me: “Nope, not dr*gs- just complete skill regression.” Fam: “that’s not a thing. ADHD is only something that kids in school have” Me: “fml. Pass me the dr*gs 😑”
