  • I’ve been struggling with whether to get an autism diagnosis or an adhd one (or to blow the money on therapy instead). I feel like I’m functioning less and less the older I get and sometimes wish a test trial of stimulants could tell me if I had ADHD.

    Like if I functioned better on meds then I’d know I’m ADHD. I know it’s not a logical wish but I hate all the loopholes and money. I struggle to make medical appointments for anything that is immediately obvious like a wound or rash. Need to get a script ready in my head and hate advocating for myself or the kids to indifferent professionals.


  • I’m not very organised on paper but I love my pollinator plants and try to focus on resilience. I have kept every tag from plants I have planted even if they did not survive.

    I store my seeds by the time of year that I sow them (vertically so I can sort through quickly enough).

    Then I do a walk through with my phone video at different times of year. Between the videos and the photos I have a nice visual reference of what was looking happy in the garden at different times of year.

    Lastly I have a insect ID app (Picture Insect) for pollinators and pests. My photos in there and the dates can tell me which plants were good hosts to pollinators, which were harmed etc.
