Hello, I am new obviously, just a brief introduction.  I am 42, and intensely introverted.  Having suffered decades of "your results are normal", I find it difficult to trust my doctors.  Just recently found out that I'm hypothyroid; it's not all in my head or a product of boredom, laziness, hypochondria, or any of the dozens of other dismissive things they've told me over the years.  My favorite color is blue, and I like anthropology.  So hello :)
