@kryptonite @QuizzaciousOtter I wasn't diagnosed until my early 40s... and I only thought to be evaluated because of my son, who was diagnosed at age 2. I recognized behavior patterns in him that I'd exhibited myself all my life. Getting the "yes" made so many things make sense. Finally, I was able to accept and love myself for who I am.
