I Don't Care
"I try more and more to be myself, caring relatively little whether people approve or disapprove." - Vincent van Gogh I have struggled for the majority of my life with mental health problems without getting a proper diagnosis. I have only seen a therapist three times, not without trying to get more in. I would like to talk to someone I do not know about my struggles. I want outside input. An unbiased opinion on what is going through my mind most days. It's hard to do. I want to understand why I am the way I am, trying to discover and repair over time. Most of it, I have done alone. Learning, growing, developing, trying to break habits, especially those that are not healthy.

Fantastic neuro-spicy TikTokkers raised my awareness about ADHD in women enough to inspire me to get tested at the age of 58. Unfortunately, nobody warned me about how much leeway a psychiatrist has when passing on your most traumatic, sexual, and personal details, including all of his session notes which he can send to your general practitioner. Now my most personal experiences and thoughts are available to non-medical office staff, an entire hospital/ insurance system and everyone in their offices with access to medical files.
