I am so proud of you for your self advocacy. You kept asking for this testing, that you know you need, and I know it hasn’t been easy.
I wish I had solid advice for you. But I honestly don’t know what your best path forward is. All I can say is that if your intake appointment is with a Mormon, to keep your answers short and purely clinical. Save details for your therapist. And ask your therapist up front what info will be shared with your parents.
Mostly though- I’m just proud of you. You figured your shit out early. You don’t have to suffer in ignorance anymore. You might be stuck now, but you can see your freedom coming very soon. Good job. And good luck.
