If I were to write here, only about politics, I don’t feel that my readers or I would benefit a great deal. The purpose of my writing is to give me an interesting and positive tool in my survival toolbox.
I do want to do my part in educating people about autism and adhd, and how politics has an impact on my life and the lives of other neurodivergent people, but I will always put my welfare first, and I think you’d agree that is the correct thing to do.
Today it is Sunday. It is raining again, it rarely stops, and I am recovering from an overdose of adhd medication. Overdose, as in I took a higher dose than my brain could deal with. This occurred because, despite my repeated protests, the nurse who is employed by the ADHD private clinic that I am going through titration with, manipulated me into doing so, by giving me a no-win choice. Take the higher dose that I had already reported made me unwell, or try another drug, which would mean me suffering months of trials, under the dangerous supervision of this private clinic.
I took only one of the higher-strength tablets, an increase from 30mg to 40mg, but very soon I was feeling very depressed and afraid. I knew that I wouldn’t take any more from that moment. It has been 2 days since I took just 10mg extra of this drug. Make your own mind up about that.
Support for people with ADHD in Britain today, 2026, largely consists of poorly qualified staff run by equally poorly qualified people. They have almost no degree of care, instead robotically following scripts given to them by their bosses. You talk to them on a mobile phone, and have little access to them other than the day they ring you. This situation is happening because the Labour government are running the NHS down until they can fully privatise it. Support for autistic people is even worse. I was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome in 2019 and haven’t seen my GP to discuss it: 6 years, zero support. I’m 64 years of age.
People understandably don’t want to think about politics when they are ill and under pressure. The globalists know that if we are mistreated, we are less likely to challenge them. I know how hard life is for my neurodivergent brothers and sisters. And they must do what they feel is best for them. I am not an expert on anything. All I can do for myself is write because I am a writer and I suffer much more if I don’t express myself, and rage against the machine.
