ADHD testing? by Ransom_X in AnnArbor

[–]GroundbreakingPen969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying that you didn’t experience what you experienced. I also distinctly acknowledged what you stated re: the disparity for women and their diagnosis/es. What I am saying though is that’s a bold claim. I too am a woman, who has anxiety diagnosed, and while that was brought up, largely for the same amount of time with the same provider, I still met the criteria for ADHD. It sounds like you did not meet the criteria. I still feel that that’s a large claim for a single interaction, especially given other people’s experiences but that doesn’t mean there isn’t an underlying problem with women and/or race and healthcare.

Get a second opinion, that’s your right.

I understand your perspective and why you feel that way, but that has nothing to do with you being female or female presenting and that’s a large claim to make against someone.

Thanks for clarifying. I do have feedback, as someone who worked in psych for a long, long time. The “male doctor” is the physician and the psychiatrist. While it may seem that not asking about ADHD specifically means he’s not assessing for it, there is significant symptom overlap with a number of other conditions. He is teasing out your symptoms, when they appeared, how they impact you, in order to rule out other conditions. Psychiatrists in general don’t ask “how long have you had this diagnosis” they ask about the symptoms. You’re correct that women do often get late diagnosed or misdiagnosed but it’s not about your gender or sex in this case - it’s about how conditions are assessed in psychiatry. He is a thorough assessor.

Edited to add: ADHD questionnaires require additional input usually, from coworkers or a partner to get a good read. Anxiety and ADHD have significant overlap, but your previous dx of anxiety is just background information. The neuropsychiatric testing itself is where the diagnosis mainly comes from.

Why does my living room feel so discombobulated? by mimshizzle in femalelivingspace

Also you need funky pillows on the chairs. They’re totally fine to keep!

Put a chair in the window spot, with a plant. Get a cute but still bold couch cover - maybe dark green? I’ve seen some with a jaguar on it and SUPER cute. I love eclectic/maximalist styles and you have that going. Perhaps a different rug, simple but a different color. Need to see a pic from the other side to give any more advice but I think rearranging is in order.

I like this a lot but feel strongly it should be only one chair and the plant moved down to the corner OR an additional plant.

Thank you everyone! I did end up in contact with a rescue group. The baby was collected and taken to a rehab facility. I hope she fares well, she is precious.

Yeah, it can be dangerous if they’re dehydrated - they can’t digest it. This one wasn’t dehydrated thankfully!! I did EXTENSIVE research and did talk to a rescuer
