Oh I fight it. I was diagnosed in 2021 and I was most likely experiencing symptoms for at least 5 years before that. It hasn't put a huge kink in my life yet, but I can't commit to work (substitute teach) any more because I never know how I'm going to feel from one day to the next. I'm a retired high school social studies teacher, aged 77.

Pd doesn't take a day off but that doesn't mean you have to let control you show the will to fight it
