Diagnosis can take multiple years, bring up your concerns to a therapist and try to work on healing together

I agree official diagnosis would be by a psychologist, but I can barely manage to find a therapist atm so that's not an easy feat. some friends who have also been diagnosed have described self discovery sort of... writing exercises, where one would try to communicate with another, but its not always successful and can be very mentally exhausting, and possibly not beneficial for everyone depending on the others

the obvious answer is to see a psychologist but I've heard it can take several years to get the correct diagnosis. we aren't diagnosed yet. but if there's an easier way I'd love to know
