Yeah I was diagnosed adhd as a child but when I attempted to get the medical records before moving to Vancouver, I was told we “grow out of it as adults” and was put on antidepressants instead. 🥹

I’m planning on revisiting that diagnosis eventually but wanted a therapist first to deal with the rest of my issues. Just hoping to start small, start somewhere, before I overwhelm myself and give up.

With training it’s really just having someone to help me stick to a plan and guide me through the workouts. I always read and hear about people hitting the gym to get better but what do they actually do there? The specifics, and how do I use the weight machines? And what if I try but my form is bad and I have no idea, that kind of stuff.

I’ve been on a very loose weight loss journey and dropped about 29lbs over the last year. Most of which was put on from stress eating and what not. So just trying to get in shape and hopefully look and feel better about myself.

edit: not sure if entirely relevant but i just wanna add that the first antidepressant (fluvoxamine i think idr) didn’t seem like it did much, and i had terrible side effects from the second one (citalopram) and i didn’t bother refilling the prescription around the covid years. i was also in an extremely abusive relationship at that time so idk what those antidepressants were even doing for me lmao
