I kind of wish I could get a do-over for the other stuff I've messed up in my life. God. How did no one notice this? I mean, if [a] parent or teacher or anybody had said, "Hey, this kid isn't [lazy and moody], she just needs a little help," everything could have been different. I mean, I've spent my entire freaking life struggling, and now I find out it didn't have to be that way? Who knows what I could have done?

Replace ADD with Depression and that's me. Bonnie expressed exactly what I've been feeling since my official diagnosis in December. I can't get over how different things might have been. I'm completely fine with who I am in terms of my illness, but I can't come to terms with everything I've missed out on because of it. Because I was diagnosed so late. And I can't blame my family, my teachers, my friends because I've felt it in 11th grade but I haven't had the guts to say, I NEED HELP!
