This comforts me a lot when I start to get worked up, and I thought the rest of you might find some comfort in it, too.

When you get a diagnosis, the doctor is just telling you something that you already knew, a name for the symptoms you've described to them. It doesn't change who you are. It just makes it easier to write on a piece of paper. And hopefully, the name makes it easier to find your path to acceptance and recovery.
