Hey there, just wanted to let you know that I am a fellow "lurker" of this forum and I can tell you, I thought you read my mind when you posted your thread.

Welcome to PC, glad you are here.
Oh, I just read the thread by infinitesadness :"why isn't there a simple definition for this disorder", and there is a link that maranara posted which I found helpful (there is a test there, too, which also is somewhat validating, In my opinion)
