Am I being unreasonable
Ok so I don’t know if I am being unreasonable about this situation. Basically I keep seeing all these teens and young people close to my age self diagnosing off TikTok with mental illnesses most of them are autism and adhd but some of them are diagnosing themselves with things like DID and Tourette’s and I just it kind of makes me mad because I feel like a lot of them don’t actually have those issues and are just confused which is fair enough these things can be confusing but I just don’t think TikTok is the place to go for a diagnosis and I feel like these people are making it harder for other people with those issues to be understood by the general population because they are confusing people about what it is actually like. Idk if I am making any sense but this has just been really frustrating me lately.
