Right now they are coconut butter, peanut butter, carob chips, protein bars, and beef sticks.

The remaining player base is rife with toxic positivity. I'm a former destiny addict, but I quit a long time ago, and so did most of the people I used to play with. The game sucks now, and it's not coming back.

Mainly just the pain of PMDD/endometriosis, being a shut-in because of that and ND, frustration at not being taken seriously enough by doctors, that I am not the best at expressing myself verbally, and that maybe if I could communicate in my preferred medium that they might understand better.

There's also a chance that they continue to believe it's treatment resistant depression and anxiety and refuse to even consider ADHD. That was my experience over a decade and at least a dozen doctors and therapists until I specifically sought out an evaluation. It's also harder for women to get diagnosed, so that was probably a factor.

I went through ADHD Online and got treated through them a while, then I found a psychiatrist who specializes in ADHD/ASD. He said ADHD Online wasn't scientific enough for him and had me do another evaluation which was also online and the 2nd part had to be done by a loved one. I've also heard of people whose doctors did accept the ADHD Online evaluation, so ymmv. ADHD Online was $200 for the evaluation, $200 for the first appointment, and $100 for follow up appointments, so I would recommend them if you're desperate and can afford it.

The idea of creating a personal brand just sounds dystopian to me. I can't even stand social media. If I can't hold down a regular job, and I can't handle being self-employed, then where do I fit into society?

Honestly I just feel more hopeless after reading this

ADHD is usually fairly easy to get evaluated for, depending on where you're located. Getting evaluated for autism as an adult is usually much more difficult.
