Hello everyone

shinyhowhow

Hi everyone I am 39 years old and have several hidden disability’s the one that causes the most damage is severe adhd and I will be assesest soon for asd of which I don’t think I or folk around me will be surprised if I get a diagnosis. I have a few other hidden disability’s which are a result of the former mentioned and I struggle to keep up with society and take the same kind of judgement and expectations as someone who’s perceived to neurologically and physically normal as the rest of society is. This is the hardest on me but i have try not to say too much to everyone as I know most people don’t understand anyway. Recently been in a ward after a huge mental breakdown and have come out worse tor it as the care during and the non existent care afterwards has really hurt and am trying to stay positive and hold on to everything but I think I’m up against too much. Sorry for long rant I like to collect things and enjoy being on my own, being creative and never settle unless i can have quiet time and do colouring in. Thank you

Hello @shinyhowhow

Welcome to the community and thank you for introducing yourself.

I'm sorry to hear about your experience receiving treatment following your breakdown, and that you felt worse when leaving than when you went in. Do you receive any other support to manage your mental health, such as from your GP?

Hi, thanks for your reply and I'm sorry to hear that you feel this way. What has made you feel as though there is no hope for you?
