Agree with focusing on the positives.

With a diagnosis you are equipped with updated instructions for yourself.

For instance, if you are having a hard time focusing on getting some work done, rather than fighting it or beating yourself up about it (my frequent go to), you can enact some behavioral intervention to help get you back on course.

It helps to reflect on what, if anything, could be done to set yourself to avoid these problems in the future.

The probability of me having a good day increases with the following: physical activity, good hydration, sleep hygeine, and not to beat myself up if things go awry.

If you go with meds, you must meet your meds half way.
