    I’ve had a feeling that I might have it for a while but idk what to do. It seems like there’s probably not a sureshot way to know I have it? And if I don’t, it’ll always feel like an excuse to other people.

        Thank you so much for that link.
        A lot of these questions hit close to my own experiences. I should really get something done about this.
