I have a fun story on this. I'm male, and I have fairly recently been diagnosed with adult ADHD, which has given some context to why I am the way I am.

I also fairly recently hit burnout, which isn't fun. But I have recovered and wanted to return to work. To facilitate this, I engaged with my doctor for a referral to a therapist to help deal with the unique challenges I faced. I had a call with the therapist (they're entirely remote), in October, they gave me some "homework" of stuff to check into as I transition back into working, and set a follow up call for about a month later (mid November)...

I still haven't heard from them and it's now mid-December.

I was forgotten about by my therapist.

It is what it is.
