Was reconnecting with a cousin of mine, she and I got along well enough in youth but didn’t live in same city. We both had a kid at this point and started connecting because of that.

I was early in transitioning. She was in the process of her own diagnosis. Brought up some of our similarities and got me thinking about it more seriously.

Did some self testing online and was like “ah, so probably yes”

I found a fitness trainer who also happened to be autistic, agender, and have other mental health credentials. On our first consult, among other things, just deadass said I should test for autism because I was autistic according to them.

So anyways I got myself assessed within a few months of those two occurrences…. Back in December.

Here I am, AuDHD and trans (statistically accurate) and I lived past 18 (yay!)

Update!

Showered, moisturized, dressed (I even have my watch on!) Kids have been dropped off.

Meds have been taken.

Next to do: Put too many espresso shots in a latte.

Venturing into lemmy fr finally. Was woken and have been in bed on my phone for the past (nearly) 4 hours. Alarms are done already. It’s almost time I actually begin the day…

Todays to do: Shower, brush teeth Take meds (forgot yesterday) Wake up kids and drop at dayhome

???

Start filing taxes? (Aka make sure I can log in accounts first)

I’ll try not to binge animal crossing too soon in the day. I’ve recently been excitedly remodeling our island now that I’m done Zelda echos of wisdom.
