Struggling with a Youth Diagnosis

Anyone else under 25 and diagnosed? I was diagnosed when I was 15 years old and it’s so hard trying to stay positive when I’m so behind my peers who aren’t.

I’m 37 now but I was first diagnosed in my mid-late 20s I think. Honestly it was so long ago I don’t remember. I just know it’s rough being young and yet, feeling too old to be able to enjoy life the way you feel like you should be able to for your age
