The Vent and Rant Thread

[Rumpelteazer]

I have an appointment with my doctor on Friday to set things in motion for an autism/adhd assessment. I'm sure I have both, but it would be nice to have an official diagnosis for various reasons.

The last couple of days I've been working on lists on which characteristics I think I have for both adhd and autism. I've been trying to be totally honest and it's been very confrontational to see it all put to paper. I'm feeling sorry for the kid I was that was always labelled as stupid, lazy, too sensitive, weird, just too much at times and who never fit in anywhere.

I've been having trouble sleeping these last couple of nights, and it isn't just because of the cold I have. Hopefully, after tomorrow's appointment I can get some rest.

Edit:
I'm not going to the doctor tomorrow. Since I've been under the weather since Sunday I decided to do a Covid test and it came back as very positive. My first time having Covid. So, I moved the appointment to next Friday and I'm cancelling Monday's appointment to get my booster shot.

We'll probably skip going to my parents this weekend, after 5 days you're likely not contagious anymore and we'll have to decide whether to cancel the cleaner tomorrow (I know she isn't vaccinated, and I don't want to risk that).

The doctor's assistant said it's been going around the last couple of weeks and to call if it got worse.

My sister came back from Italy last Friday with it, it's not a souvenir I like.
