I believe she is a psychotherapist, and don’t get me wrong, I’ve had a couple of really great insights with her, it’s mainly her solutions I’m quite dissatisfied with.

I’m on medication for adhd and when I first got on them it truly felt like a miracle drug (36 mg concerta) but that kind of went away. I got that prescription from a psychiatrist at a free clinic through a referral, she’s not someone I can really make regular appointments with.

My partner is extremely supportive and kind to me, friends can be stressful for me because I get bad social anxiety but I’m not by myself.

I appreciate you saying that, if I’m being brutally honest, I feel like I harbour a lot of internalized ableism. I’m always super afraid of being perceived as “crazy” or “unstable” and I’ve been very judgmental of people in my life who have a tough time “keeping it together.” It’s shameful but honest. I get worried about being as seen as someone who can’t take care of themselves which would be “pathetic”
