    But how does going through life undiagnosed and struggling help you develop coping mechanisms better than being diagnosed and knowing why you are struggling?

      That’s not what I said. I said that going undiagnosed for a certain amount of time you get coping mechanisms. That didn’t mean they are 100%. If you kept reading you’ll see that I got diagnosed so why would I use my example to say being undiagnosed forever is good?
