Hello,
I was diagnosed last month via the NHS. I am a female in my forties.
Wish I'd been diagnosed as a younger person, so that I could have received support I needed.
Life has been a difficult struggle, where I have been badly treated and also misdiagnosed.

So sorry to hear things have been difficult for you. I too am a female in my forties and I was diagnosed 2 weeks ago via the NHS. I was told to expect some ups and downs in my mood when I was diagnosed but I am trying to stay as positive as I can. I hope your diagnosis means you can get some support now and that it helps you understand yourself better.
