Didn’t figure it out until I was in my late 50s, and I’m not taking any meds for it. Just knowing that I am part of a group and not just some random weirdo was all I needed for validation. It’s been several years since that day, and my life has changed for the better. It is truly amazing how a little bit of knowledge can change your life!”
