i hate to sound like those ppl on tiktok who self diagnose themselves with a million things but im self diagnosing myself w adhd and ocd . believe it or not after mentally blogging my symptoms for a year i do seem to be worthy of an evaluation 🤔 but now my worry is how do i get an evaluation .. my mom just thinks im lazy & don't like to listen and im to scared to talk to my guidance counsellor about it . do i wait until i get a job and a car to check or do i thug it out cs this anxiety is beating my ass & i heard the medication causes weight loss #noticing 👀 . i also need an excuse to not run the mile in gym i have 0 endurance
atl wingspot for dinner tho #excited #bluecheese

Honestly, it's not bad to be cautious of your own tendencies by self-diagnosing sometimes, because you could let a disorder eat you up without ever getting diagnosed and that's way worse imo. I also suspect that I have ADHD and had OCD because there were LOTS of signs. OCD can also be a symptom of ADHD 😬
If you can't convince your mom to get you evaluated, I would probably do it secretly, but do be cautious of the side effects of the meds bc I heard they can be pretty bad, especially when you miss a dose. One of the side effects can be suicidal effects (I'm pretty sure for both ADHD and OCD medication) which is why my mom won't get me evaluated (I've had bad reactions to medication before). I hope you figure it out!!
