I understand your frustration. I haven’t been diagnosed with anything. I remember my dad saying that it’s bad to be diagnosed. I thought he meant with depression. So yes, I feel very let down.
On the other hand, if I had been diagnosed, my life would have been very different, and I am not sure it’d be for the better. Autism accommodation was unlikely to have done me much good in the 90s, when the stigma was even higher than it is today. There’s no way of knowing though.
