    Sorry, I have trouble identifying when I’m being rude. To me it just seems like obvious pattern matching.

    It’s hardly trivial though. It’s not like I’m sitting here undiagnosed and spouting nonsense. This is my life. And it’s not hard to see myself in many other people here.

    It gets upvoted because those people feel seen and represented. Which is nice for once. To be welcome someplace as a person and not infantalized or shunned.

    And yes, if I start giving medical advice please call me out. But this ain’t that.
