my son was recently diagnosed with Autism and while I was doing the course I found that I ticket many boxes. Including sensory issues and swimming behaviours. I also think I tick some boxes for ADHD as my mind is constantly racing and I find it hard to get to sleep as this seems to be when my brain does a download of the day. I've always managed my differences by organising everything. People often comment that I have OCD for organising, but I just do that so I don't forget and I can manage my life. I keep appointments on my phone with alarms, I use alarms for taking tablets. I work hard to remember to contact people. but I find contact over the phone frustrating and I often get upset at other people and I've been told I'm not great at articulating when I'm upset. I also feel like I have no real control over my emotions. is it worth getting diagnosed with maybe Autism or ADHD? personally I'm thinking no, just because I'm not likely to get the mental health support that I feel I need here in the UK. But some people say I should as it points out to others that I could be a little different but that's fine. I'm not sure. what do others think?
