Holy shit you guys.

I just came from my first appointment with a psychiatrist. This post, which I'd seen before, actually popped up on my dash yesterday and I was going to ignore it because I'm stubbornly honest, but then it occurred to me that I've been stressing so much about this appointment... worried he wouldn't take me seriously about my having ADHD. I'm 51. I just... Well, you know. Anyway a little while after seeing the post I was like, y'know, this could be a sign from the universe.

So I did it. I went in there and told him my supervisor told me she thinks I might have ADHD. I also said everything else I'd intended to, but I led with that. And of course I can't be sure if that is what tipped the scales, but he wasn't sure, and yet still said we'd try a low dose of Ritalin.

You. Guys.

And who knows, maybe it won't help. But maybe it will. I get to try! I'm feeling so hopeful right now.
