It sucks when your symptoms interfere with you being able to advocate for yourself. I'm in a similar boat to where I want to get evaluated for ADHD but I just can't make myself make an appointment and I just don't know how to navigate this godforsaken healthcare system in this country.

I want you to know in response to your question a few hours ago I opened a text document and just started adding things that have been bothering me lately as I remembered them and I've at last accumulated a list of about 20 things that have been bouncing in and out of my head for months and months now in my list of "symptoms." It's honestly been insanely cathartic to write it all down, and it's funny - this is literally the only way I know how to be productive: have the work open, and in between bouncing from one thing to another, really quickly add literally once sentence when it comes to me before I forget. I've written college admission essays this way - one sentence at a time, with 20 minutes or an hour in between when I do other shit. It's frustrating, but if you're able to do that and then bring the list you create with you to your appointment I'll bet it would really help you articulate what's going on, because I know if I sat down and a doctor just asked "so, what issues are you facing" I would just stare like a deer in headlights at them. I know that because I called a hotline and they asked and I had no fucking answer.

Good luck. I for one would like to know how it goes.
