Just recording things about myself in comic form in my "Just getting an ADHD test" journey.
I was told that I probably had it at 25 years old. This really surprised me! I had always been described as a "Space cadet" but I didn't realize that the possibility of me having ADHD existed. I had always thought that you had to be very hyperactive and that caffeine had to make you tired in order to have it.
Currently I am trying to get a test for Inattentive ADHD at age 28. I tried last year, but I was denied a test because I had graduated from college and had a job at the time. Which felt weird, but I guess that was how the person I was asking for a test felt.
Now I have a test lined up, I'm just having a lot of trouble getting the person I saw recently to have their person who talks to my insurance call the hospital that my insurance covers to set up a test. It's especially difficult because I keep forgetting to call their office to push them to do the thing! I did manage to call yesterday so hopefully that will help something get done.
Making someone who has no sense of time and has a lot of trouble (despite much effort) keeping track of appointments be in charge of forcing people to get things done within their time period feels a bit diabolical. Ahh!
