Great podcast! Getting a diagnosis as a woman in the US is very difficult. I sought a diagnosis for health reasons. It would have been nice if insurance covered it. I like the idea of a “disappointing” t-shirt. I’m a people pleaser. I just want to be liked so I used to do anything, at the expense of myself, to be accepted by peers. I try not to care about fitting in but it still hurts.
