“I wasn’t diagnosed with ADHD until my 40th birthday, and it all made sense, but before that I had been to doctors for the past 20 years about crippling anxiety and inner anxiety.

All the doctors and GPs threw me antidepressants, which of course is like giving flu pills to someone with a broken leg.

It upset the chemicals in my brain as well as my ADHD which resulted in a meltdown.

It was like living with 17 TVs in my head at the same time, and I tried to commit suicide three times.

Luckily, I am very bad at attempting suicide, thank God. I’m laughing now, but it’s not a matter of laughing. I’m just trying to see the funny side.

Previously, Tanya set an example She spoke of the torment she endured at the hands of cruel bullies who made her want to commit suicide.

The TV personality, who is married to footballer Phil Bardsley, said she threw herself in front of a moving car in her younger years.

“I’m really excited about trying to raise awareness and trying to spread the word and help other people,” she tells Esther and Philip.

The waiting lists are very long for people to be diagnosed, two to seven years. Seven years, it’s a very long time.

When asked why it takes longer to diagnose with females, she replies, ‘Usually boys are picked up because they’re more restless, but there’s also the inner side, the inner restlessness, the noise in the head.

We’re better at hiding it and we’re not annoying the teachers and all, we’re not anyone’s problem.

“And we’re not very good at talking about it and telling people what’s wrong with us, so we kind of fall under the radar.”

She added, “I did a lot of mind-studying, so my focus became excessive. I used to get too hung up on bad thoughts, which we used to love trying to complete suicide.

“Now I try to pull away and focus on the positive, and when I’m so focused I can get so much done, and then I lie in bed for a few days, just completely burnt out.

“The turning point in my life was just a diagnosis and just knowing about it and realizing it so I know when to take a break, and I know what tools to use.

So I think it’s really important to get the message out there. Some people may not be depressed, they may not be anxious, and they may just not be diagnosed with ADHD.

The influencer recently explained how bullying, as well as her need to change schools often while his family moved around due to her father’s work with the military, made her feel very unsettled.

Talking to johnny sifert on Insecure lock “I attempted suicide myself,” Tanya said on the podcast. I attempted suicide three times in my younger years. ortunately, I fail every time I feel happy.

But I jumped in front of a car at that very time, and managed to swerve out of the way and thank God I dread to think what that poor man would have gone through if he had hit me.

“I think the universe has bigger plans for you and I probably should have gone through that too.”
