i really hate it when people reply to posts that describe a negative/odd feeling that someone has with ‘yeah thats depression/anxiety youve got there, youve got depression’ because
you do know that in order to actually be diagnosed with depression you have to experience several certain symptoms that, on their own, can be experienced by someone without depression? one feeling does not make up the entire disorder, and your blanket statement might have just convinced several impressionable people that theyve got a mental disorder
its a symptom. say that its a symptom. raise awareness, make it easier for people to diagnose themselves, but dont diagnose people when all youve got is a single, relateable post.
