It is hard for me to let go without having concrete answers, especially after I was misdiagnosed based solely on exclusion. I didn't fit the diagnosis and was ignored and accused of seeking attention. It profoundly hurt me.

No matter what, nobody should be accused of attention seeking. I can't imagine what you'd have to be doing to actually have this.
