I'm not going to quote people because um, I feel like I triggered half the site so um, I'm not gonna drag anyone back to read my blahblah. So I'll almost definitely miss things cos usually I use quotes to remind myself wtf my point was when I started typing..
Anthony, I appreciate the official viewpoint.
I'm not talking about anyone that I have decided doesn't meet criteria cos uh thats not my business basically, and I haven't, I'm purely meaning members that have said they have no diagnosis for whatever reasons, all of which are valid enough for me.
And re me SHing in this thread, heh. I dont agree. I think the main thing I find unusual re my own diagnosis doubts (most recent post at least) is that I see a lot of trauma gatekeeping, but never *symptom* gatekeeping. So I was like "I understand it meets critA but I don't feel my symptoms currently fit" n was just told that because my trauma meets critA it's totes PTSD (not saying everyone said this, there was obv helpful replies too from quite a few folks, including you siniang) It's like sometimes people forget that critA and critE (that one about drugs etc) aren't the only criteria. But everyone has very strong opinions on those ones.
It's just sometimes seemed very specific way to judge members, while ignoring other aspects of the diagnosis. In my own personal opinion.
And obv anyone can probably read through my posts if any of you are having a particularly boring day (not recommended, heh), and find me being a massive dick to new people too. I can't think of specific occasions but I'm not confident that I haven't either. So yeah, all a bit hypocritical probably and just my own current thoughts on it.
