thank you everyone! honestly, being diagnosed is a relief. the way he explained it really opened my eyes to my behaviour and how having to mask constantly (and not really understanding what was wrong) was causing me great stress. It all kinda made sense.

I'm happy i'm going down the right path now in understanding myself and my ways of thinking

Fuck this is fantastic I’m really happy for you. Diagnosis can be so useful for understanding yourself I’m so glad you got this and you got the right attitude about it too.
