Re: Getting diagnosed saved my graduate career!

I really agree. Thank you for commenting! I thought that maybe my story would help others to get tested, as well as make me feel less alone.

Also, I realized I had been using those thoughts as a kind of sad motivator. It was like I had to prove to myself and others that I wasn’t stupid and could do it, but I still felt bad after I had finished my project because I struggled so much. Getting diagnosed allowed me to open up a fresh box of tools, rather than using the same broken ones I had used for so long.
