How did y’all go about getting diagnosed with ADHD/Autism? My family tells me I’m fine and everything else and makes me feel invalidated. I just want to be helped with my struggles

does your school have a mental health team. first steps is to go to them. dont be afraid to tell your psychiatrist your concerns about having adhd/autism. its hard to take the first steps especially if you have adhd but its worth it 100% you got this is bro
