So true that muddling or way through and surviving is a big achievement. I will keep reminding myself of that when I start to feel like I haven't really achieved much. Thanks.

Good for you. As you say, "now I know what is right with me". I am terribly saddened to read of the past misdiagnosis, though I think it was very common for people on the spectrum in those years to be mislabelled in that particular way, and is less common now though it is still happening....
