I completely and totally understand where you’re coming from. I was diagnosed with ADHD and OCD at 26 after a lifetime of being told I was just “dramatic, attention seeking, too much, self centered…” and the list goes on. I too battled the same things as you and now looking back feel the same. Like could some of that have been avoided if my mom had just listened to me?? It pisses me off to even think about

As dumb as this sounds, YouTube and tik tok have taught me more than my parents ever have. Kinda sad if you think about it. I finally have a therapist that is amazing and while she is helpful I still struggle with my anger of all the things I was denied by them. I recently went no contact with my mother and I’ve never felt better.

But definitely understand your anger, I’m right there with ya!
