sure I don't want the label, let's face it no one does!
I see you are unaware of the TikTok LARPers who claim to have mental illnesses as a form of validation… Really, it’s maddening more than anything, if only because they can’t even fake it right, but I digress…. (TikTok is a time sucking hell hole, I don’t recommend it to anyone.) There are many young people who fake mental illnesses, they actually WANT the diagnosis (but let’s be real, if they had the symptoms to go along with it, they’d pull a u-turn really fast). PTSD, autism, DID, you name it…
Edit. I’ve always said that those who actively want a disorder don’t actually have it, as those of us who have it wouldn’t wish it on our worst enemies. Having a name to go with the struggle is good in that it enables you to narrow down treatment options.
