You're still exactly the same you you were ten seconds before the diagnosis, and ten hours before the diagnosis. It might give you insight into some of your behaviors and feelings. And it might help your doctor find the correct medication for you. But other than that, the diagnosis is just a word. You are still you, uniquely Linkadge, not a diagnosis, not a simple label. They haven't come up with a diagnosis yet that can sum up Linkadge or Dinah or anyone else. You're way too complex for that.
