Hi. I have been wondering how to get an assessment for neurodivergence as I seem to struggle with some day-to-day things. I seem to relate to a lot of memes from the adhd and autism communities. I also seem to have a good amount of traits that overlap with autism and adhd.

How did you get your diagnosis? Do you have any advice regarding obtaining an assessment?

    Can I ask you what borderline means in the male context? Like, how does it manifest foe you? The only male person I’ve ever heard of having it is Pete Davis from SNL

      I only first heard of it through my diagnosis myself, but it explains a lot about my difficulties controlling my emotions. There is no middle ground; it’s either full volume or off. If I’m sad, I’m depressed. If I’m angry, I’m seething. If I’m happy, it’s euphoric. Or I’m just entirely numb to the point where I felt maybe I was sociopathic or something.
