Struggling to Get Diagnosed: My Frustrating Journey

I am not diagnosed with any of the things I say I have on here, but I have done a shit ton of research and have been trying to be tested for a very long time, but as I'm quite young to be diagnosed for them now and cahms and the nhs are already so busy, they just keep pushing it back. I'm almost 100% sure I'm autistic and lactose intolerant, and as for hypermobility, I'm currently doing research. To be honest, I've pretty much given up on getting real diagnosises because I have been ignored for a good 3 years now.

hey! I believe you, I don't have a dx for my autism but half the stuff I have going on is so obvious that I don't feel like a dx should make or break the validity of what you're saying (or anyone for that matter). My dm's are open for you if you'd like to have a conversation about alternative that are dairy free (im also lactose intolerant), & things I've found to be useful for both my autism and lactose intolerance! It took me years of experience to get all of the information and data I have now, but I've gotten a pretty good idea and have a decent system so far for also not getting much professional help mentally/physically.
