27 when i was diagnosed definitely got worse with age not being able to realize my potential was a really tough pill to swallow but have been since medicated if you have coping mechanisms that help you get to the point you are now then kudos i haven’t held a job longer than 1 year and numerous other debilitating effects because of this shit i believe doctors and people question us because the severity can differ wildly my sister and brother are also diagnosed my brother uses it to his advantage and is on the way to becoming a lawyer me on the other hand can barely function at my job everyone is different don’t be discouraged
