People who self-diagnose are cringe and should be made fun of.

[@ZachPlum]

There are legitimate reasons that self-diagnosis can be valid for some people. A diagnosis from a medical professional should always be the end goal and self-diagnosis is no substitute for that. But sometimes it can be hard to get diagnosed with certain disabilities. For example, it’s very common that parents won’t want to listen to their children or even take them to a professional in search of a diagnosis. Not to mention the immense financial barriers there can be to doing so; jumping through different doctors and appointments isn’t cheap. In general, I agree that plenty of people who self-diagnose are cringe and doing it for attention. But there are also a ton who are completely valid.

It really annoys me when people take these issues that really impede on my ability to live a normal life and treat them like silly little quirk that you show to your followers for internet points. It really trivializes the struggle of people with real mental disorders, and creates a ‘Boy Who Cried Wolf’ mentality among people who aren’t really invested in other people’s mental health.

[@radekplug82]

She need live 2d model contact with ceartain fishman.

[@donzapatero4808]

We are in an age of mass hypochondriac and I think tik tok makes it worse because it makes mental illnesses seem trendy when they are actual problems.

[@RadiationLemon]

one of the chatters commented "she's pippa" LOL

[@LordOfElm]

I had tourettes so I can relate, but I was taken for diagnosis at age 9, and was forced to take a handful of extremely expensive medications with loads of side affects for nearly 10 years. Fortunately I had motorticks rather than vocal, but I can totally relate to the mental stress of trying to hold back in public, and when at home preferring the freedom of not having to care. I ended up injuring myself a few times with specific ticks; it's not "fun". I also get where the younger sibling is coming from, I'm sure I annoyed mine plenty, but to be honest that's just part of being a kid and has nothing to do with disorders IMO. I could also sympathize with the parents, since the specialists who diagnose, and the medications, are hella expensive.

[@Adi-kf6bq]

Even here in germany where you don't have to pay anything to see a doctor it is hard to get diagnosed because you need to talk to a psychiatrist for that and since they are specialists and therefor there aren't as many it can take up to a year to get a first appointment. And as someone who is diagnosed with depression (my therapist thinks i might have some other things too) it annoys me when people claim that they have something that they don't have.

[@qiang2884]

When I was young, I wondered if I have ADHD. I told my mom, a doctor. She says maybe. Probably. Then she taught me how to cope. And I learned. And it feels great beating your fucking genes. Maybe I still have some weird behavior, but it doesn't affect other people and is self contained. We humans are better than animals for a reason, and if the disease is severe we have meds.

[@Friendly_Neigborhood_Astolfo]

We need more neurodivergent people to eliminate the normies

[@hdog9046]

I hate the term "neurodivergent" because of people like this. I bet there are just as many people, if not more, that are faking having a neurodivergent disorder, as those that actually have one.

[@Pawtacle]

Self-diagnosis can be a helpful thing if you actually really dive into the subject, read some papers on it and take a few tests that are officially used in getting the diagnosis. It might be a slight problem that people take self-diagnosing too lightly without going to a doctor to check it, but it's a way more harmful when people dismiss the self-diagnosis as just a "trend".

[@joaogarcia6170]

One thing is to accept people who have disorders and have them figure out how to deal with it, another is celebrating them for having it, or using them to justify unacceptable behavior. This is not just in the psychological realm, it seems we've done a complete 180 on virtues, we are praising weakness and impotence, putting it higher than Strength and Potency, we are doomed to downfall at this rate.

[@joshua3340]

4:28 yeah, this pretty much sums it up.

[@adrianaslund8605]

The first one sounds like conversion disorder or OCD. I got a similar issue after I had been through Trauma. It was a reaction to intrusive and painful thoughts. Conversion disorder is when some emotional problem becomes translated into some physical or neurological disorder. Maybe she's gone through or is going through something that is traumatic and that she can't talk about...

[@AnimaRandom]

Its either that, hysteria, illness anxiety disorder or factitious disorder Either way,she's gonna have a long years of therapy So yea...please ban tiktok

How was the Chuninbushin or what thing called? When teenagers imagine themselves to be legendary anime characters or something?

中二病 , middle school disease. Pretty much yeah... but I have the impression that in America the older folks don't understand that a phase is anymore kek

[@Kareszkoma]

@@DsiakMondala Ahhh, that's the one! Eh. It's okay. They have a bunch of phases too. Some which tends to last a bit too long.

[@Sys-Edit0r-1995]

I was diagnosed with Asperger's in 2010. In recent years I make beeping or peeping noises when I get stressed or remember stressful memories. I only seem to do it around my parents or when I'm by myself For me it's a "pressure release."

[@joefurlong421]

But if she goes for a diagnosis and there’s no issue with her then she won’t be special. 😱

[@WhatBeDaPointMon]

My doctor called me neurodivergent and I sperged out on him. I find it far more derogatory to call me that, than to just call me what I am. Just call a spade a spade damnit.

[@sampy901]

It's awful because it makes the people who have to live through the actual miserable parts of thse kinds of disorders look like a joke

[@CBRN-115]

Jesus, what is happening in America?

[@MK_ULTRA420]

America can't survive without a worthy opponent.

[@Misanthropolis]

If you consciously make the assessment and factual statement that you NEED to make these sounds to feel better, then you are not afflicted with anything. You are just insufferable at that point. People with actual autism most of the time do not know how to control it nor will they tell you outright that it is to feel better. They do not know. To consciously make such an assessment would be like breaking the 4th wall of mental illness. Reminds me of that scene from Duckman when Cornfed came to visit Duckman at his house and he made a legal disclaimer referencing his mandatory screentime.

[@Shinssue]

Self-diagnose isn't bad, it's just the first step. The second is doctor confirmation, most people skip this step.

[@AIC_onyt]

sounds like a new talent for phase connect

[@GodessAsh]

Also self diagnosing isnt even this. Its something else Making weird noises and saying weird phrases for adhd/autism is more of an echolalia thing (repeating a thing in same tone, accent, musical progression, etc) than tics or whatever for tourettes. And stimming and tics are also different things. One of the most common one is bouncing your leg constantly (sorta fun 7/10). Twirling hair is another (sorta uncomfy. For me 3.5/10)

[@Architectofawesome]

Pippa diagnostics. Take them all to therapists. Fair enough.

[@nicolasa.3192]

I got suspended for three days off of twitter once because the first time somebody said "neurotypical" unironically I naturally responded that they should kill themself

[@DsiakMondala]

Based reply, but being on twitter is unforgivably cringe.

[@testaklese]

When my brother was like 10-16 he used to act like that. He would make weird noises and act like a freakish spaz. I told him that he was acting like this kid at school that everyone felt bad for and avoided because he would talk to himself and make animal noises in the middle of class and was a freakishly zealous Nintendo stan. I started calling him that kids name when he would have freakish outbursts. Thank god he outgrew that. He's cool now and we get along fine.

[@youngthinker1]

Back in my day we listen to Lincoln Park and Three Days Grace while acting like we enjoyed smoking.

[@hhhhhhhhhhhhhnhhhhhhh]

Ever been having fucking dissociative episodes randomly and not knowing anything about how you feel at any point including hunger and pain and shit and your mum sends you tiktoks telling you that you have adhd?

[@funnyperson4027]

I hate the term neurodivergent lmao

[@lucascerbasi4518]

I swear to god, I don't think there is something in this world that pisses me off more than someone faking a mental illness. It's just so annoying, pathetic and disrespectful.
