I got diagnosed with laziness in school.
Many years later, another doctor looked at the diagnosis and said that the first doctor had written down textbook symptoms then missed the diagnosis.
The word lazy still hurts today.
Medical ableism is so infuriating. I'm glad you were able to get diagnosed eventually. For me the word annoying is one of those words associated with like ableist trauma.
