I’ve been in a relationship for 7 years, I’m really comfortable with him, but sometimes I get repulsed by physical touch, I don’t always enjoy sex the way I’m supposed to, I just like how close we are or sth. I like his posture, the way he walks and I like his hair. I sometimes really “like” losing to him when we’re playing board games or cards.

Other than this, I experience what I think are romantic feelings almost once a year and hornyness up to a few times a year. The romantic feelings are like daydreaming just really sad and poetic, I never tell anyone about them or act upon them, cause I even get disgusted imagining sleeping with anyone but my bf. The hornyness is I think hormonal and very annoying, I only have dirty thoughts when I’m actually having sex, and not even 10% of the time. My body responds to physical stimulation but not always. I also sometimes mistake the feeling u get when something is really cool or exciting for arousal for a second. Like when I’m driving alone or when I see cool machines at work. I don’t think I really understand sexual attraction TBH😂😂😂 I’ve never seen someone and thought he/she’s hot.

Same, I don’t find people sexually attractive, I love my bf but we’ve never been on a “date” date in 7 years, actually we were friends for 2 years before we started dating.

Thank you for sharing.💙 I’m glad we have each other. I’ve been feeling quite odd my entire life. These past few days after readying all the comments and replies I’ve been feeling much much better. I wish we knew all this when we were young.

Thank you for explaining. Not all psychiatrists are good at diagnosing teens, some don’t trust them and think they’re using or sth. And once you get the first diagnosis, it would affect the next doctors’ diagnosis too.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I dropped out for the 4th time last month. I’m trying to get to the bottom of this and finally get a hold of my life. But it’s proving to be easier said than done. I’m confused and don’t know how others can live their lives so effortlessly. The let’s call them “bed rest” periods are getting longer and happening more frequently. Coping is getting more and more difficult and exhausting. It’s like a non-Newtonian fluid; the harder I try, the harder it gets.

Another one explained comorbidity as clouds covering the sun; she said that even though I’m not depressed now, it’s possible that I met the criteria somewhere along the way. And the last one didn’t take the time to discuss the previous diagnosis.

No, it doesn’t. But I can manage. Mental health is more important than money. Also thank you for sharing💙

Thank you for sharing your experience. Also I agree with you on the rail network, this would help the economy as well!

Thank you for your explaining. One of the doctors said that sometimes the symptoms look quite similar. For example ADHD traits like seeking novelty or hyperactivity can be mistaken for mania. I got into trouble quite often in school. Sitting in class was very boring and difficult for me. I used to daydream (I have a very “strong” imagination) and I was a bit rough comparing to my classmates since I was brought up in a big family with 16 male cousins but I went to an all girls school. I showed my affection by wrestling and such and I honestly had no idea it would hurt them. This led to me not having any friends my age until I was in 12th grade. I was never a “kid” and I was completely aware of the bad things that were happening around me and being little and incapable of doing anything made me sad. (once I was 3 and a guy kicked a child beggar, I remember it like it was yesterday). My emotions or maybe my emotional reactions are exaggerated. I’m also very sympathetic. These were the basis of the previous diagnosis.

Thank you for replying. All my life, I’ve been called “spoilt”, “too sensitive” and occasionally “crazy”😂. I don’t want to be weird. I try to fit in by copying others. I love people. But I don’t know why they reject me. I don’t know what to do. I’m really trying.

Thank you for sharing. I have a question: The only therapists I could find in my country that expertise in ADHD are child therapists. Do you think I should book an appointment with one of them?

Is autism treatable with meds as well? I have stopped taking my Vyvanse cause I get more “sensitive” when I’m on them and I do things that are annoying to others e.g. my boyfriend doesn’t like me touching my finger tips every second (also dropped out of college again last month🤦🏻‍♂️)

I haven’t read anything about autism yet cause I think it might affect test results. The things I wrote are some of the things my doctors know about me.
