...See more *warning* emotional trauma, car accident, anxiety, seizure trauma So I swear I'm not making any of this up, my life's just been this weird. I haven't really had access to proper counseling, and I don't have money right now to look into it. I've tried talking to people, but either they're not in a position to mentally handle it themselves, and other people just don't believe me. This is just me screaming into a void. I've always had high anxiety and learning disabilities which were just diagnosed as Autism Spectrum Disorder within the past couple of years. I've only just gotten into my state's resource services system, even though I'm going to move across the country after tax season is over. I used to have seizures caused from a car accident when I was in highschool. That lasted for over two years, exacerbated by my heightened chemical sensitivity, and ending with me almost drowning in the school swimming pool because my teacher didn't believe I could be allergic to chlorine. I'm really only including this because eventually I'll have to live with family members that don't believe that any of that really happened, despite paperwork from a specialist. Then to top it off, my mom has been increasingly emotionally manipulative because I'm leaving, but I'm not sure how much of my family believes that. It doesn't help that an entire side of the family probably has ASD, OCD, or (potentially) a form of Schizo-effective disorder.
