Mostly just looking to venture foe support maybe.. Currently undiagnosed but I see my GP this week to discuss meds (that im alreadt on) and I'm gunna ask about an evaluation cuz I'm 98% sure I have something. Leaning towards adhd or autism or both (or hell, maybe its "just" cptsd)

Right now my big issue is, at the age of almost 34, is learning more of the language nuances... tone and pacing and such.

I've always had some issue here, or doing things like "like" or "um" and being chastised for it. I'm told inshould just pause but then when I do, people think im done or something and start talking? Even though it's usually just to take a breath or think of the word....and it's sofrustrating. . Now I'm getting structure and tenses wrong I think I need to slow down but then I come off as boring. And I don't often put that positive friendly tone on things people want from me for some reason, I'm still learning to filter and not point out negative things sometimes and that's extra hard because that's basically all iknew/heard growing up....

I get metaphor most of the time, but ambitious statements can be weird, it's takes me a minute to realize what was said and whether i was literal or not... And this all kinda leads to social awkwardness and difficulty keeping friends.

I have a several other ND symptoms but thats a little irrelevant for the post
