I'd be frustrated too! At least knowing what the professionals think, even if it's just traits and not an actual diagnosis - well, knowing could help with feeling validated, and it could help with cutting yourself a break. "Ok, well, X seems impossible! Well that fits with the AvPD.... so no wonder it's a lot harder than Y - I'll just keep trying." Instead of just reconfirming all the bias against ourselves when something seems impossible.
