Hi all, I am a female in my mid 30s with a 14 month old. I have always struggled with anxiety and bouts of depression. My family chalked it up to laziness.
I had all these plans to do more once I had a child. I do my best to go out everyday with her. It’s so hard finding the motivation, to take the extra steps to leave my front door.
I’m seeing more posts about masking, ADHD and autism in adult females. I want to learn more, I want to seek help. I find myself getting overstimulated, overwhelmed and just snappy. I always wonder should I be on medication, if so? What?
I also find myself struggling with roles and purpose. I still don’t feel like a mom, I feel guilty for not working and contributing financially.
Now I’m just rambling and going on tangents. Anyone else relate?
