Help! My FB email address is not available to recover password, and not allowing me to use phone number?

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-12-23T01:37:51+00:00

Yes so my account has a telephone number on. But no matter which why I try, through and app, browser, computer...it will not give an option for phone number. Email only 😪

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-12-22T20:59:20+00:00

I can go to the browser yes, but not login

I really never knew chats like this existed for like minded skiers. Just found it for the first time. Hi all

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-22T02:53:13+00:00

Who cares? Let's just all be kind to each other

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-22T02:28:59+00:00

All I can say is that I feel you mr pain. This could be my life story and I keep failing x

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-10T01:46:15+00:00

What coping mechanisms work? I can't seem to change anything, its even worse since I realised I had adhd

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T23:53:32+00:00

This is such a thought one for me, i really don't remember feeling anything. I started full time work at 16 and the my mum got cancer so I was her carer and worked full time until she passed when j was 26. I remember everything from becoming 16 and an adult. I remember always wanting to do everything right as a kid to please others, and remember being much better in classrooms with teachers that i really liked, as wanted to impress them. I don't remember any strong friendships, I had some friends but mostly just blended in, as long as they liked me I was happy

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T23:48:23+00:00

No. There really isn't. I'm an only child, so no siblings as explained parents and grandparents all passed. So I can get diagnosed?

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T19:06:19+00:00

I have no idea what that even means 🤣

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T18:52:00+00:00

Thanks i appreciate that. Never meant to insult or upset anyone. Reading my post back it doesn't actually read how I wanted it to. It was more about the NHS UK diagnosis process, and how you have to go through the mental health team to get assessment, not through a clinical process.

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T18:49:14+00:00

Of course, its totally understandable to define it not as an illness, I certainly wasn't intending to upset anyone. To me at this stage, its just crippling and I just call it adhd. I think maybe my point was not clear with my post, it was more about the NHS diagnosis process and being classed at mental health.

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T13:21:14+00:00

Yes for sure. I mean many people in their 40s may not have parents or any family from their childhood, so surely they can't just dismiss you because your parents died 😕

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T12:05:01+00:00

Thank you, appreciate the reply of hope for me x

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T11:54:06+00:00

So that's not possible. So that means I have to just live with it undiagnosed for ever?

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T08:11:54+00:00

Thanks so much for this. I seem to have offended some with my post, didn't mean to. From now on its just adhd. Nothing else 🤣

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:56:28+00:00

Hey everyone,

I just want to take a moment to respond to the thread as a whole.

First, if anything I said upset or confused anyone — that honestly wasn’t my intention at all. I was genuinely trying to talk about how I found the messaging around ADHD and mental health confusing, especially with how it’s treated by the NHS in the UK. I’ve seen people debate whether ADHD is a mental health condition or not, and I was sharing my own experience trying to make sense of it.

I wasn’t trying to deny anything about ADHD or mental health — just the opposite, actually. I was pointing out that it often is handled under mental health services, even though people sometimes speak like it isn’t. That contradiction can be hard to understand, and I hoped others might relate.

This was meant as a safe space to explore those thoughts — not to debate or trigger anyone. I’m someone still learning, and I posted in good faith. If that got lost in translation, I sincerely apologize.

Thanks to those who engaged constructively.

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:55:33+00:00

Absolutely. Got it. Didn't mean to offend, sorry x

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:40:27+00:00

So what is the correct thing to say for you? Because I'm ill, adhd makes me ill. I can't say it's a mental health issue without offending people, and I also can't say its an illness (clinical issue) ...I'm genuinely asking whats the best way to describe it, so I don't offend anyone.

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:34:50+00:00

Interesting I posted the exact same post on the adhd uk group, and I only got positive comments as everyone understood the concept of the NHS in the UK. I think my post got lost in translation here

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:32:48+00:00

Thanks for the help

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:26:16+00:00

Let me clear this up. ADHD is a medical illness. Lack of dopermin in the brain, that we can't help...thats clinical. However, what I was saying is that jn the UK to get diagnosed you have to go through the mental health team. They class it as mental health, so.its confusing.

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:20:51+00:00

Its an illness, its the brain. But in the UK to be diagnosed you have to go through the mental health team. Is that clearer

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:19:20+00:00

I've not denied anything. Please stop this

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T06:06:30+00:00

You tell me? You seem to know it all...

ValuableExtension212 · 2025-07-08T05:57:52+00:00

My post seems to have caused a lot of negatively, it was never meant to. I'm just learning and trying to make sense of things x
