    Hello @Strawberry1

    Welcome to the community! :)

    I have popped your post into our PIP, DLA and AA section of the forum so more people can see and help with your query :) 

    Can I ask, are you getting support for your mental health at the moment?

    Having EUPD absolutely does not define you @Strawberry1 or make you any less. How are you doing this weekend?

    Hopefully, you'll receive the support you need and deserve soon. In the meantime, please don't hesitate to let us know if we can do anything to support you  :)
