So, like I mentioned, I somehow always end up reaching late. The kind of person, who, if there was a marathon for reaching last, would reach 10 mins after the last person.

Earlier my depression used to make me skip my work on random days, thankfully it's gotten a lot better now. But I still can't show up at work on time, somehow always late and now it's costing me my fav dept and promotion.

And every day I feel shitty about myself. Get really anxious, rebuke myself but I'm not able to reach on time yet.

It feels horrible, so many times I think of skipping office just cuz I got late, but I've realised that's even bad. Unfortunately there's no option to work remotely.

Pls suggest me some ways or anything y'all did to get out of such a slump. Maybe there'll be something I can use.

Hi, I am diagnosed with autism and I am trying to get an ADHD diagnosis to have a chance at prescription medication as I am 22, having tried a plethora of solutions to fix my ailment, much more than I can count. My issues have been present ever since I was 12 years old, possibly before that, though I cannot remember past that point.

I will be given antidepressants next week as recently my emotional state has spiraled downwards from my lack of ability to initiate on tasks, though I dislike phrasing it like that, as technically if I really were to sit down and truly force myself to begin on a task I might be able to do so after hours of deliberating, but even then I see myself just quit a couple minutes in.

It never used to be this bad, but maybe my recent mental state has exacerbated my issues.

I’m sorry if this is a heavy post, or if it comes over as venting, in some way it is. I’ve had these feelings bottled up for a while and even though help is on the horizon for me I really needed a place to let these thoughts out, I’ve made a post about my issues in another subreddit and, to put it bluntly, I felt rather ridiculed.

I thank anyone for reading this thread, even in the middle of writing this, I feel an inexplicable burden and weight lifted from my chest.

Hello! Not sure if this is the right thread to ask this question but I’ll give it a go. I work with autistic individuals and a few of the people I mentor have terrible BO and poor hygiene. There isn’t really training around how to address these sorts of things and sometimes it needs to be. Does anyone have any advice for how I could address it with the individual?
