And another study says 8 or 10 or 12 or 15 or 17 years and the list goes on depending on what study someone is reading.

The symptoms that are causing life to be beyond difficult are being addressed typically from day one

If your “ 10 year “ is correct than I should have been diagnosed at 16 not 43

Averages and vast amounts of studies can vary beyond belief.

It’s all about treating symptoms not getting a label
