Help Jaiden pay for his ADHD assessment!

Hey, I'm Jaiden!

For so long I've struggled with every day tasks, forgetting things and just feeling behind everyone else. I always thought I was just lazy or I was creating my own barriers.

I finally found a doctor who I connect with and feel comfortable around enough to open up about these difficulties to which I was told "I may have undiagnosed ADHD and/or autism".

It's a lot to process when you hear it at first, there's so much negative press and a stigma about it. I went home, read about it, read about other people's stories and experiences and really connected.

It's a relief knowing that it's actually something wrong with my brain causing me to have to put in so much effort for mundane tasks that people can just do without thinking. It's actually kind of liberating.

I'm in the process of my autism treatment and have been waiting for a call back for booking an ADHD assessment.

I was told to expect to wait months for an appointment, I had it all planned to save money for it.

Today I received the call. My appointment is in 3 weeks. $1350.

I looked at an early release of super on compassionate grounds, didn't have enough paperwork to support it.

I looked at loans; confusing at the best of times and all wanted minimum of $2000 and everything written in blood (Not really but, you know what I mean.)

Work has given me less shifts, a result of me messing up basic steps (thanks possible ADHD) and with it being a quite period for customers.

I hate asking for help, I feel so useless, but I am in dire need to pay for my assessment; $1350 by the 6th of June.

Any little bit will help and I would be forever grateful. I just want to be able to have my brain work properly enough that I can feel like I can do normal and day-to-day tasks without messing up constantly.
