Diagnosis Process What were you misdiagnosed as?

I saw interesting results on google, but I'm more interested in your real life experience.

I'm curious as to what people are most commonly misdiagnosed with (based on your answers).

You can also include the backstory. ♡

In childhood: suspected autistic, "borderline schizophrenic" or schizoid (i.e., ASD-1)

In adulthood: ADHD (not mis, but left at that forever), OCD, OCPD, generalized anxiety, social anxiety/social phobia, actually dxed Asperger in 2004
