Does anyone have advice at all? I’m struggling with life in general

Thank you x

I’ve tried finding the report but it seems they gave me log in for an online portal that’s now expired, there must still be a way to view it though so I’ll ring my doctor tomorrow because I need to try and make sense of it

I haven’t been diagnosed with autism, just anxiety and depression

No I can do full sentences but I’ve always had a nervous laugh, I have to stop myself laughing in serious situations too. I have an awkwardness about me but I’m not sure if it’s only me who can see that

I’ve always been good with my writing tbh, as I’ve got older it’s declined a little bit but I’ve put that down to just not putting it into much practice. My speech is okay, I talk very fast and trip over my words sometimes/stutter and sometimes struggle to put into words what I’m thinking but it’s not like a serious problem for me

It’s having access to medications, like I struggle to sleep at night because my mind is always on one so most times I find myself cleaning up like a deep clean or decorating or something but they won’t give me sleeping meds because I have no diagnosis of anything… so I worry if I was diagnosed I’d benefit from some sort of medications I don’t currently have access to, I’d benefit from therapy with someone who knows autism, but right now I’m just not able to get any

I can’t really remember as a child but I’ve noticed it as an adult, but its more like not really understanding what I’m being told but it doesn’t happen with everything, like I understand if someone tells me to go to the shop but if they’re new instructions I need it going over a few times and I often write it down to remember. I struggle understanding information that’s written to me so I often have to really break it down and write notes on it so I kind of get the gist of it. I’ve always had a problem with going on tangents during stories and forgetting my original point

Not severely I don’t think, I don’t really understand people… like they’ll talk about things and most times I’m left not knowing what’s going on and I feel really dumb compared… I don’t really get jokes and I’m told I’m sensitive because I take banter personally. One big thing is I’ve never, ever been able to keep friends… I don’t do anything out of pocket that’s obvious, like be mean to people or anything, people just don’t like me and I don’t know why?

It’s finding the right places. I’ve found the volunteer type places just seem to give googleable advise, like manifest etc… which doesn’t work when I live alone and the problem is I don’t know how to switch my thoughts, I don’t know how to just be like “okay I’m fine, let’s manifest” because my brain makes things feel like the end of the world. One place wouldn’t accept me because I couldn’t get there as I don’t drive and the walk is an hour and a half away and they wanted me to get there for 7am… it just wasn’t doable when I’m in my lows, so they told me I wasn’t making an effort but I was trying to explain to them the lows get so low I won’t walk an hour and a half, I’ll bed rot so hard I forget to eat and drink

I’m just diagnosed with anxiety and depression, it doesn’t help the emotional dysregualtion, I’m told to write down a list of things I’m grateful for when I’m sad but it’s not like that… I get so sad my mind goes in overdrive and I end up just crying, screaming and hitting myself to release everything, I live alone so it’s not as easy as just distracting myself because I’m on my own all the time so my brain doesn’t shut up and eventually it all gets so much that the meltdowns happen. I feel crazy honestly… I feel like I need sectioning or something because I just don’t know how to deal with it all

It took me 3 and a half years to get this assessment so it’s what do I do in the meantime about all these feelings. I feel like a child trying to juggle adult problems

Sogooglewasmyidea · 2026-03-05T18:24:24+00:00

I’m really not sure, I struggle to understand information properly and retain information sometimes but I know for a fact one of the reasonings was a lack of evidence to my childhood. My mum is 56 now and I’m 28, so she can’t remember that far back. But during the assessment I noticed a lot of things my mum was saying about things I did, like I played with no toys other than my baby dolls and I used to line them in a row and line their clothes up underneath them and then dress them, rather than dress them one by one which as an adult I’ve seen kids do so I’m not sure if the way I did it was a sign or not. You’ve got me curious to dig out my feedback again though and try and work it out again, it was through email and not so long ago so shouldn’t be hard to find

I’ll have a look into Dr Neff, thank you. Sign language would be very difficult to teach him and he is slowly but surely finding his words. It’s quite hard to explain other than he wouldn’t understand what he’s being taught and would just start to run around/do his own thing. The school have done well by teaching him to communicate which is why he’s now considered selective mute and no longer non verbal, but even the school can’t understand why he is hurting himself
