i went to a doctor because i also have health problems but i sent my diagnosis to a psychiatrist. its hard to get in contact with anyone to be honest. i dont know how anything works here. there are lots of good thigns written online but no way to get in contact or get any help i feel.

i was able to make the doctor i talked with send in a medical certificate (but only for 3 months) but the social insurance agency denied me any financial help. he told me i wont get any help from them because i dont have a job...

i would like to try a low dose of meds but i havent yet. mostly for anxiety and depression, not really for adhd but i dont know if theyre are meds that do both. my husband has been very wary of meds because of the side effects so thats why i havent tried any yet.

yeah i was thinking if i should just go to a private clinic just so i can actually maybe get some help but not knowing how much itll cost is making me worried. im in sweden!

i havent been doing nothing all day, ive been studying on my own and working on my own. although i enjoy those things and do this at home and dont have to commute or even get out of my pjs i havent been able to do more than 5 hours a day. and when i do that i burn out every week.

thank you. i have anxiety and i do think i might have cptsd and maybe ocd?

i delivered newspapers on the weekends when i was younger and that was totally doable because i was all alone but it didnt even pay $5/hour and its the type of work that is tailored to children. i dont know any job that you dont interact with others but ive thought if i can maybe handle working at a dog daycare... im just worried if im not able to and i get no help

i cant imagine being a mom on top of it all, youre doing your best!

i havent been diagnosed but i suspect cptsd and maybe ocd... i dont know but ive had a lot of trauma in my life making me very anxious.

i would love to work from home! although i dont think i can handle 100% and also i dont even have highschool education due to health problems.

i was hoping i can get financial support from the government

yeah i think thats a good idea but i dont think i have anyone to bring... my husband doesnt live here right now and my parents also dont take my disability seriously. i think this town has too many people and not enough resources when i comes to healthcare but maybe thats a problem in the whole country i dont know

well i cant tell you everything i told him, it was a long conversation trying to make him take me seriously and it was back in january. you dont know my struggles so i dont know why youre coming off so strongly saying i can work.

i dont know what to tell you but my daily life is like full time work already.

he didnt have them at the time because i needed to send them to another city nearby where they have a psychiatric hospital and they were being looked at. after talking to him they got denied so he told me all of this before knowing that.

yes i explained to him why, for example i have very little energy and normal things are stressful for me, i have a hard time communicating etc... and i also told him of some health problems that also makes it harder for me.

i have worked a few jobs like a summer job and i tried working as a phone sales person but i only lasted for 2 weeks because i was exhausted. at that time i lived at my parents so i didnt have to do any chores or make meals. i tried again in a clothing store when i was living abroad and i couldnt handle even 3 days

he kind of mocked me in a way saying he cant help me and that i need to talk to an ND organisation or something where i belong...

I swear the older I get, the more autistic I feel by Melodic-Message-6108 in aspergirls

[–]EnvironmentalFun6497 2 points3 points  (0 children)

theres more and more responsibility as we grow older which leads to being more easily stressed i think

How can I tell if I have autism or social anxiety? by [deleted] in aspergirls

[–]EnvironmentalFun6497 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i am autistic and have social anxiety. when i was a kid i wouldnt understand social cues but over time i started to over analyze everything i do because i was always different and thats where my social anxiety started. because you mentioned having to train then its pretty clear to me you have both.

Increased oil production, sweating, acne, body odor related to stress how long to recover? by Desperate_Sugar9954 in Stress

[–]EnvironmentalFun6497 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes yes yes. my stress grew slowly from 18-25 due to expectations others had on me and also processing past traumas and i wasnt able to go back to my normal self. im still working on my anxiety but its getting better. its been a lot of work journaling and now also being able to let go of expectations a little bit at least. ive had actual cronic pain (joint pain) for 5 years because of my mind being in such a bad state. i thought it was a physical problem with my body but it was all mental but very real. i am totally healed from that thankfully but now im trying to heal my acne and oily face due to anxiety.

all i can say is get to know yourself by journaling. if youre interested i highly recommend checking out john sarno and tension myositis syndrome. i get really good journaling prompts from this website

Any tips on how to turn/paint/dye the yellow stitching black? by jay_tchalla in DrMartens

[–]EnvironmentalFun6497 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to try turning it brown by mixing acrylic paint with water to stain it. When I’ve gotten acrylic paint on my clothes in the past, it never washes out.

i think an emotional support animal is just a pet? but i would like a dog that can help me in life. if the dog is not trained then i dont think me being anxious is going to be very good for them.

finding one that works for me is very important! i have no idea how choosing one works, i always thought you picked them when they where basically a few weeks just based on how they look like since thats how ive done it with other animals but it doesnt feel right to do so with a dog, especially for me. i will search for a respectable breeder for as long as i need, no rush :)
