A reminder to my #neurodivergent kin: take breaks during these holidays which can be overwhelming at times. I had to do just this today, in preparation for family arriving tomorrow and in recovery from those that arrived yesterday. Manifestation as nausea and sensory overstimulation. Not fun. Heavy blankets and a dark room helped for a few hours. My kids were very understanding thankfully. @actuallyautistic

Having had my ADHD assessment part 1 at lunchtime I am now preparing for lunch at 4.30pm as I needed to go to sleep afterwards because it wore me out. It was a zoom appointment.

The official diagnosis won't be given until after Part 2 but she said that Part 1 indicated what I was suspecting. That is ADHD before I was 12 and ADD afterwards and as an adult.
