But as soon as I was diagnosed, like later in life, when I was about like 29, it was only a couple of years ago, I was just like, it makes so much sense why I was like this as a child and, you know, why I acted a certain way and why I always had to ask, you know, my friends around me, what's going on?

Because I just had no idea.

So I guess a lot of that, like getting diagnosed was definitely like, you know, another piece of the puzzle, like, oh, this makes so much sense.

Yeah, yeah.

I was so just like a, you know, a middle class family, you know.

We got by.

Honestly, like, no, I had, I had no idea what was going to happen in my life or my future.

I don't know if it's part of like an ADHD thing, but I never thought past the present day really.

So it was just like, I guess my personality type of always been like, go with the flow, whatever happens, happens.

If it's good, great.

If it's not, we'll get through it.

There's just always been like the way I've worked.

So I've never really thought of

you know, coming here today and telling my story.

It's crazy.

Cause like, you know, you grow up in a small town and like a lot of people around you, like, I just thought everyone was just doing the same thing.

And I guess I thought that was going to be my trajectory as well.

I had no idea.

Yeah, but you had your boyfriend.

Yeah, when I moved to Australia, that's when I met my ex-partner.
