A friend got diagnosed a few years ago, and for fun he sent me the introductory questionnaire his doc had given him. I thought, "oh this will be fun", and then ended up fitting like, 90+% of the behaviours! That led me to talk to my psych, and here I am with a diagnosis myself.

It's super weird getting diagnosed as an adult because it's like, all these things I've been doing for literally decades aren't just "personality quirks" they're because my brain fundamentally works differently. Very strange adjustment, I'm right there with you.

Yuuuup. And so many of my "personality traits" are straight up coping mechanisms that I've developed, being an adult with a job trying to function in a neurotypical society!
