Over the past ten years, I've been diagnosed with essential tremor, then Parkinson's, then MSA, now FND. Part of treatment for FND they sent me to see a therapist. Now in addition to FND, I'm diagnosed with MDD, anxiety, PTSD, ASD, and a partridge in a f*****g pear tree. While that certainly explains a lot, I'm not quite sure what dredging up all of that social anxiety, awkwardness, bewilderment, shame, embarrassment, and abject failure to establish and maintain meaningful interpersonal relationships, from the vicious animalistic bullying in childhood to two failed marriages and who knows how many failed careers is supposed to accomplish at 58 years old, other than reminding me in excruciating minute detail of everything which I'd really prefer not to ruminate about.

A warm welcome to the site - I was dx'd at the same age.

Hello and welcome to wrong planet

So basically you're sh*t with people and you've been diagnosed with all the letters of the alphabet. I think you will feel at home here.
