Did anyone else find it difficult to accept a diagnosis of ASD?
Or did you find it helpful?
If it was helpful, why?
If you don't want to accept it, don't. It's a free world. I accept mine, but I was diagnosed so late in life it only really affords me a useful letter. i have lived over half my life as an ND with an NT skillset, so I am already battle worn. that letter affords me a way to get people to comply to certain acts of law, nothing else. If you get a diagnosis, it's not going to change your life. It will make it easier in some ways and harder in others, but at the end of the day it's kind of like getting a degree or passing an exam, it's still just a piece of paper.
