I think the biggest thing that changed is my mindset and being able to accept myself. I believe that my mental health has suffered because of the late diagnosis, as I have been diagnosed with general anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder. All of it was beginning to affect my work when I became stressed and overstimulated when I was a CNA (certified nurse assistant). It has gotten better now, though, because I have found ways to cope (and what has been stimming all along). The diagnosis has certainly helped!
