My mental health is so bad I can't cope anymore. I'm fairly sure I can't just walk into a mental health facility and ask for an evaluation

I think I have a disorder that is causing me mental health problems as a result but I can't get anywhere with a doctor with this

I've been putting on a front that I'm fine, hiding my struggles to appear normal on the surface and at work when I can't function properly - I don't even stress myself or shower often

Life feels so overwhelming I can't care for myself and just feel like I dint fit in and the world would be better without me

I'm not going to do anything stupid but what are my options - I understand nhs is at breaking point but I feel like I have no support, going round in circles with the doctors and can't even get an appointment with them until march

It feels like the only way someone will listen to me is if I actively try to end my life and it shouldn't have to come to that - I can't think straight, my partner is great but he isn't around tonight and I can't be a burden to him all the time

Has anyone else been here, please tell me how I go forwards. I think I have adhd as tick every box but suffering with anxiety, depression and general unstable feelings as well, struggling to relate to the world and feel like I just don't belong

It didn't used to be this bad - I think I've reached my breaking point and I can't go on anymore like it
