    I feel you. Didn’t get a diagnosis til around 27, but nothing really done about it until 32 or 33 as well. It’s really hard to not feel like a big chunk of your life was taken away, something I really struggle with. Still working a lot out at 43, so here’s to hoping.

      Exactly, it feels like something was taken. I found it helpful to grieve much like one would grieve the loss of a loved one. Just turned 40, and so much still left to figure out! But everything is looking better, even if just a little bit. I have a lot of hope.

        That’s a pretty good idea honestly. Thanks for a bit more insight.
