Step one has simply been to just own my diagnosis -- to not be afraid to mention it, casually, in context -- because if I am stigmatizing myself, for years now, how can I say I expect anyone else not to do the same?
Also exposure breeds understanding. If this has given myself a context to better understand myself over the course of five years -- how can I expect anyone else to understand without context?
I have not regretted this choice.
