what strikes me about the story is just the sense of being believed, and of validation that comes with having a name for the disorder and research around it.
oh god yes.
honestly, this is a huge reason I like diagnoses, even if they're shitty ones like psoriatic arthritis. For me, it helps me feel in control because it gives me something to research, something to build an attack plan against.
