I got diagnosed at 37 last year after my wife got diagnosed a few months prior. We're the same age. And then my sister got diagnosed too, a couple months after I did, at 31.

The childhood part reflects my experience to a t. The adult diagnosis part makes me think I'm one of the lucky few, after I read your comments here. Parents took an interest in my diagnosis and discussed my childhood at length. They regret not knowing about it when I was a child but they are sort of relieved that we know the reason for my problems in life.
