once you figure it out let me know 😭 genuinely considering both Dr shopping until I'm taken seriously and showing them my actual diagnosis log printed out and statistics on unmedicated ADHD and poor life outcomes because im sick of being ignored and shrugged off. all I can say is ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF. you deserve to be listened to, it is *your life*. but also try not to seem desperate. go in and ask about ADHD testing. describe your symptoms in detail (I'd write them down so you don't forget them bc my adhd makes me forget just about everything I'm not focusing on lol). get the test done thru a psychologist that works for the same office as your psych, and go through that psychiatrist to get medication.

when i was diagnosed it came out of nowhere, i didn’t think i had ADHD and we never talked about it previously, i just kind of was myself and one day she just dropped the diagnosis on me
