And our current culture actively dissuaded individuals from seeking diagnosis, because that choice could have profoundly negative consequences to your fundamental human rights. Employment discrimination is the least of such problems. Involuntary confinement up to complete loss of individual agency are possible outcomes as well. There are countless ways that the mental ill are marginalized and oppressed. Why would I volunteer to wear the equivalent of a pink triangle or yellow star, when people keep trying to find a final solution for the mental health problem? Go ahead, call me crazy for drawing that parallel, but that is exactly how I view the status quo.
