I can not even begin to articulate to you how badly I DO NOT want to do this stupid critique/paper! If this possible diagnosis is correct my entire life could fall apart and I'm forced to sit here and write a paper where I try to explain everything that I do wrong that could be explained by a disorder that I MIGHT have without saying that because you already think I've diagnosed myself or asked you to do it and violated ethics in the process when I did neither. What do you want to bet I get a failing grade on this no matter what?

And Bonus: Even if I get this diagnosis officially, it doesn't change a damn thing! I'm still in the same mess I'm in now, it just makes sense why. They can't dismiss me for a disability, but if said disability prevents me from ethical and responsible practice in this profession (regardless of my degree of control over it) they have an obligation to protect the public. And as much as I understand that, you have NO IDEA how much that is going to hurt.
