In today's episode of the podcast, I talk with Ember about their early ADHD diagnosis and how it didn't save them the way so many late-diagnosed folks imagine early diagnosis should. The truth is, there's a difference between diagnosis and acceptance. And so many late-diagnosed folks wish they'd been diagnosed earlier because they imagine it automatically comes with acceptance, but as Ember describes in this episode, that's not always the case. If you were diagnosed earlier in life and feel a bit left out by the whole late-diagnosed neurodivergent movement, this episode is for you. I hope you feel seen and heard and understood.
