I'd like to assume the reason why they don't validate 18 as a proper diagnosis age is because of puberty hormones, which us kinda dumb because I feel like puberty is already done by that age or nearing. Our brains aren't fully developed til around 25. I think getting diagnosed early on is beneficial to be able to change habits or manage the disorder. Rather than when your frontal lobe is developed, because it doesn't really absorb changes in routine or new information as well as when it was underdeveloped.ย In other words, I agree with you, and I am sorry you're going through this. Don't pay any mind to those who have no knowledge or degree in this field, myself included.ย |
