OCD/AuDHD wreaks havoc on my executive function, and was left untreated for so long that my life is now falling apart.

I'm insufferable for completely different reasons.

I feel ya. You’re not alone.

Same. Despite plenty of signs, my parents refused to accept that I could even be slightly autistic (due to the stigma of it I guess?) and that my obvious ADHD needed any sort of treatment other than being pulled out of school, isolated at home, and not allowed to eat TONS of things.

I now have to deal with pretty bad social anxiety and a lot of trouble having vocal conversations with people I am not extremely comfortable with. Sure, I would have likely struggled with these things anyway, but I'd probably be a lot more comfortable socializing if I had been able to learn and grow among my peers during my developmental years.
