I’m 31. Diagnosed by a psychiatrist at age 23.

And believe me, I resisted believing the diagnosis for as long as I possibly could. It made my life painfully more complicated to accept it.

Fortunately it’s not an overly severe case. With a little medication and a lot of training, I am living in the world much better than before. It’s still a daily struggle with severe social anxiety though.
