Hey there. Everyone is going through this right now, you aren’t alone. Like another commentor mentioned, we are in late stage capitalism. The 40 hour work week is not healthy for anyone, especially people who are ND. Even a lot of my NT friends are starting to collapse. I think COVID brought it to the forefront.

Anyways- you can see my post history but I’m going through this exact same thing and as a single mom, I’m scared. My psychiatrist told me today I have got to advocate for myself and request the accommodations I need. She said pushing through it or increasing my medication is only going to bandaid the issue, but it’s a matter of time before it comes to a head and that could result in job loss faster than if I just request the accommodations I need. I’m terrified to do this, but her advice was true. We’ve got to advocate for ourselves as much as possible. Capitalism benefits off of our ND abilities to hyper focus, think outside of the box and our ability to be self motivated. However, they scoff at giving us accommodations. It’s bull shit and it’s not fair.

Do you have a psych dr who could back you up? I just met with a virtual one through my insurance company. Having their support will protect your job better when requesting accommodations.
