i was diagnosed 2 months ago at the age of 36 i work for a large company and around 85 of my colleagues think all i do is slack off because they seldom see me doing anything but the remainder see me as the most valuable asset here its always been this way even in school i once overheard two teachers arguing about me one wanted to recommend me for some sort of gifted program and the other literally laughed and said i was barely a notch about the special ed kids my whole life has been so confusing only now with if im lucky about half of my life left to go are things making any sort of sense
