Nina@lemmy.mltoADHD Women@lemmy.world•The Lost Girls: ‘Chaotic and curious, women with ADHD all have missed red flags that haunt us’ (great article)English
1·
1 year agoI tried to get an ADHD diagnosis and my report came back with a mini-novel about how I was just a hysterical female with self-image issues I displayed as a way to garner praise and attention from those around me. My attention and focus problems were only because I just found the everyday stresses of life so difficult, being so fragile.
Any one who knew me felt disgusted reading it. But it’s made me very hesitant in trying again to get a diagnosis.
You can attach an audio file to a post on mastodon and it gets an embedded player. Just federate a compatible audio file?
