Yeah I didn't get diagnosed until like 20, and I don't think not knowing negatively impacted me. I knew I was different, but I didn't think there was anything wrong with me. I still often thought "If they can do it, I can too."

Now I know there's something wrong with me I do often wonder what's the point of trying. I feel like I'm fighting an uphill battle, but I guess I also think that my successes are even more of an accomplishment?
