Anxiety, stress, and insomnia vs ADHD.

Today, at the age of 40, I went to the psychologist to see if I get diagnosed. Next week, I'll start the tests. Whether anxiety, stress, and insomnia are causing ADHD-like symptoms, or undiagnosed ADHD led me to develop anxiety, chronic stress, and insomnia, let's find out! :D

It’s great that you are taking steps forward to begin to get some clarity.

I want to do this so badly… what tests are there? Do you see a gp or psychologist?

It is awesome that you are getting it done! I went through a similar journey recently and I have zero regrets.

I was misdiagnosed for so long, now it seems I have ADHD and CPTSD not the dreaded lady's mind disease hysteria aka "bipolar" .. I think DX is a huge relief and overrated at the same time. The method of treatment is what makes all the difference <3 good luck!

Good luck! I’ve been tested and still can’t figure out which causes which 😅

The label they give me really doesn't matter much; for me, the achievement lies in having started doing something about it. I've been dodging it for 40 years.

Are you getting assessed for autism as well?
