Hi, I have been messaged by someone to say what ADHD said may not be entirely accurate. It’s still worth writing to your MP to see what the changes are actually about but might not need to panic x

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

A poem I wrote a few years back. This is why I don’t write.
For my tax return, whenever I may do it.
Oh tax return!
Why do I never learn?
Every April I promise faithfully
That this year I will do it early.
Christmas comes & all the way though it, I'm hounded by the spirit of Moira Stewart.
My husband sighs as hills appear, Made up from receipts of yesteryear,
Can I claim for that trip to Jinkx Monsoon?
I wonder as Jan 31st starts to loom.
And then, at last the end's in sight, and I excel with all my might.
And then it's done, what a day it's been.
Roll on January 2019

Well just had my autism assessment and yes. And I burst out crying in the meeting like a bellend. (Talking about all of the things that put you out of sorts is A LOT). They also think ALL OF MY OTHER DIAGNOSIS ARE WRONG so I *should* get a full diagnosis for my 50th birthday, LOL.
