First thread + ADHD Speculation
TBH im not actually sure if im doing this thread thing correctly. But, I'll get right to the chase.
For the past two months I've been speculating that I may have ADHD? It started when my friends who were officially diagnosed telling me that I fit in with a lot of the symptoms they have and I show a lot too. I've done research as well and yeah, I agree I do show a lot of it. But I'm still very wary of self-diagnosing myself. I don't want to say that I have it cause I feel like I'm going to be insensitive to people who do.
Feel free to ask any questions or say stuff.
@understandingSky6499 I can relate on trying to understand myself as well. If possible, I'd say consult a parent, or guardian, or simply a trusted adult, and see if they can perhaps get you a formal diagnosis. If not, then perhaps you could reach out online and find resources. Perhaps 7 Cups might even prove to be a resource itself, though I'm not entirely sure. I hope you find the explanation you're looking for though. Good luck. 🧡
@Celc
How are ways that i can do it online? I can't really do it IRL because there isn't really any adult figures in my life that I trust that can help me with this.
@understandingSky6499 I admit, I'm not entirely sure, however perhaps you can receive a diagnosis from an online therapist. They often do require pay, however perhaps you can raise those funds through non-profit sites? I apologize if this advice isn't helpful.
@Celc I'm not sure how I can do that without my mom finding out but thank you for the advice!!
@understandingSky6499 No problem. I hope you're able to get a diagnosis, or at least some sort of explanation.
