I suppose it serves me right for calling myself monologged, I guess I'll just deposit this and then squeeze out a blob toothpaste. Sweetdreams

I do not have a diagnosis of ADHD. When I was 16 I realised that it may be something that needed looking into, or at least help with understanding something. There was just a thread that needed to be followed up on, even if I was wrong. So I spoke to my parents about it and I asked them to give me the benefit of the doubt and look it up - properly. They didn't and after my long monologue I'd been talked out of it by tangents.
Then I got distracted, and I forgot about it. I'm 23 now I don't want to speak about those 8 years really, I never want it to happen to anyone else. I don't believe half of the stuff that happened, it has been surreal and really horrible.
I came to the same conclusion again recently at which point I remembered I'd already worked it out as the cause of many of my problems (compounded by many other issues in my family). But my memory doesn't seem to work in a way that allows me to live normally.
I feel as though I have been let down repeatedly, and I have lost the chance of ever even getting my A-levels let alone going to University for good. I need some advocacy or some recognition of what has happened. I know I won't keep the chance of getting it forever. What am even supposed to do here? I don't want medication or treatment just advocacy, who do I speak to?
I have lost so much of my life already, I am capable of a lot and all I ever wanted to do was help people with it. So much of this could have been avoided so easily. I don't have the energy to get knocked back another time and still be able to trust other people.
