Do You Think Of Me As Often As I Think Of You?

i agree with this!!

i do think self dx should come with good reliable research as well

it's important to do your research on the dx before assuming you have it

guys, can we stop pretending that being wrong about a self dx is the end of the world

worse case scenario, youre back at square one with figuring out exactly whats going on and you dont have any other leads or explanations to why you behave certain ways or why things in your life go the way they do

its actually far more harmful for a doctor to be wrong about a professional diagnosis (which they pretty often can be in the abnormal psych area). a doctor misdiagnosing you can lead to you being put on medications you dont need that could end up making things worse. in some cases, this can be life threatening. it happened to our moms boyfriend when he was little. he was given an adhd diagnosis and was put on adhd meds he didnt need when he was actually bipolar. and yes, it did end up doing more harm than good. at some point he just lied to his mom about taking them and then showed her all the pills he hadnt been taking when he was doing better because he wasnt taking the meds that were supposed to solve his problems. he got rediagnosed after that and everything was good, but it still doesnt change the fact that a professional misdiagnoses can be really harmful

self dx literally doesnt do any harm to anyone. as long as the person in question did their research, who are we to dictate what they can/cant suspect about themselves and their experiences?

wait dude i think gods here quick close the wikipedia page for Evil

I take my wallet out of my pocket and unfold it. It is empty other than a single moth that lazily flies out. The moth lands on the tap point of the card reader. There's a beat, and my payment is processed. The moth flies back into my wallet and I put it back in my pocket.

Kind of awesome being raised under a rock because I hear about a movie and go yeah I’ll check that out. Never heard of it before. Watch it. Get my DICK blown off. And then am like. Wow…… has anyone else heard about this critically acclaimed film with a 96% on rotten tomatoes that great filmmakers cite an inspiration for THEIR critically acclaimed films……..

they will never want me as much as i need them
