I didn't get diagnosed until my late 20s....this is why. - eviltoast

Why the hell does this keep happening? I still hear horror stories of how people struggle for half of their lives and nobody stops to think “this isn’t normal, we should see a doctor” and it just infuriates me.

Please, if it is negatively effecting your life or you get into arguments about it and it’s effecting your social or home life, see a doctor.

      Thats quite the lack of empathy and social intelligence you have there. You do you but, personally, I would choose not trying to compensate for that by claiming to know better than the vast majority of doctors and scientists. Not to tell you what to do but I’d aim for something with a bit more self awareness, myself.

      Yes, a total stranger on the internet with half a paragraph of information would clearly be the reasonable train of wild assumptions to ride to a definitive conclusion. Medical professionals are clearly wrong on this one.
