Hi guys. I’m from blighty as well. Studying at Kent and have been trying to get an ADHD assessment for years. Had my old GP in Stratford tell me that “ADHD is a child’s disease, do you have depression?” I have the same traits as you do. At 40 I still day dream of being a boxer, kung foo expert, writer actor, director ad nausium. getting an assessment for the first time hopefully. just waiting on the Maudsley satellite office in Sittingborn to agree to assess me but have been told to wait maybe 3 months just for a phone assessment. I should be easy to wait a few more months since I’ve been waiting for years already but I feel like I’m about to explode. Because I’m anxious I keep forgetting things I need for uni, putting too much of stuff I don’t need in my bag even more than I usually do. This is fucking exausting
Good luck with your journey btw
