Possible adhd?
I had my second baby a few months ago and have been struggling with cognitive functioning, memory, and generally feeling overwhelmed.
I have noticed a lot of trouble being focused, starting on a new task, feeling overwhelmed, even listening to a person in front of me, etc.
Did any of you have a similar experience? Did you get diagnosed with adhd? How did you get help?

I got a private diagnosis and it was about £1000. I got diagnosed autism and adhd. I also then had to get nhs diagnosis through doctor. It happened quickly ish because I went private. It can take years if done on nhs x
I’m not on meds because I’m pregnant I often feel overwhelmed and have emotional dis regulation. It’s worth going to your doctors if things don’t seem right x
I recently became aware that I had ADHD. I wanted the psychiatrist to test me but he said because of my inattention and major trouble with executive functioning he was putting me on an ADHD med. So no diagnosis but on meds for it. Lol I have felt SO much better about myself since discovering this!
Do an online test for ADHD that’s what my Docter told me to do and show the results to her and they will refer you to a psychiatrist who can diagnose you but I’m still in the process it’s a long wait to get diagnosed but it’s worth it I think especially if your struggling ❤️ or it could just be postpartum but you know yourself best muma!
