Hi, my name is Valya. I am excited yet worried about pursuing diagnosis because of the way in which I've seen others discriminated against. I really love reading and personality type systems, so I think that's why I've gone undiagnosed for so long. I fixate on relationships among communities and didn't realize I was masking for so long until I had a meltdown at work. lol whoops. It feels like a huge weight has come off my chest after stopping the inner-guilt of being myself around others. I felt guilty just being alone because I couldn't identify my emotions sometimes, but this is a strength when it comes to working in daycare or other settings like that. I genuinely feel others emotions (if I don't learn to cope and block them out). I truly believe we are gifted with high sensitivities to sensory things, including emotional energy in a room. I'm happy to finally be back on the path to understanding and truly truly loving myself.
