The beauty of being diagnosed at 12, my mom had to fill out the paperwork.

The worst part for me is I was diagnosed at like 10 and my parents just went "nah" and forgot for 17 years until I got diagnosed again on my own

That sucks, I didn't realize how lucky I was to have a parent who accepted the diagnosis and worked to help me. Sorry it was so ruff for you.
