After multiple burnouts, in my early 30s I finally knew why life sometimes felt harder for me. It made perfect sense, so why had no one noticed before?
My therapist doesn’t believe in adult ADHD and therefore also not in my self-diagnosis. This text just showed me again how obvious it is that I’m audhd though… Good read, thanks :)

Oh and the swan story was pretty funny, too!
@flora_explora @Five Ugh. No one deserves to be constrained by what their therapist “believes in”.
I was diagnosed at 48, 4 years ago. And there is not a doubt in the world that it is in fact truth.
If you have any opportunity for a second opinion, go get one. If the diagnosis will help you, then your therapist’s opinion doesn’t matter.
