    I have Autism and ADHD being diagnosed when I was around 22 but I had symtoms since birth as I was delayed in speaking and didn't learn or start talking till I was like 4. I also have Schizophrenia brought on through trauma and symtoms started when I was 15 and diagnosed when I was 18. I have Crohns Disease too and Gilberts Syndrome and had multiple operations for this, I started having symtoms when I was around 19 and got diagnosed when I was 20.
