How did you react to your diagnosis?

I was diagnosed late last year at 42 and was initially happy with the result. Since then my wife says I've gone downhill and been in a poor state mood/mental health wise (I'm not good at recognising my own mental state so her input is vital). I'm wondering whether processing my diagnosis has been harder than I expected and I'm wondering how you found diagnosis as an adult?

    So overjoyed I danced around my living room. 

    But I think there are no correct responses to this.  Much will depend on the circumstance which led to the diagnosis and whether you worked it out yourself or somebody sprang the news on you and what you feel you are now able to do with that information.
