This is sadly all too common in the disabled community in general.
I am not ignorant. I understand that many, perhaps the majority, of disabilities that exist in the United States are of the “invisible“ kind.
However, the number of individuals who want to elevate their very common, and human, difficulties in life, to a “disability“ is ridiculous. If I had to diagnose most of these people, I would call them narcissists.
- SamoyedFurFluff 5y agoFunny because narcissism can be debilitating. Narcissistic personality disorder completely ruins a persons ability to have even just one healthy human interaction or relationship.
- jl2718 5y agoActually that’s interesting because logically it implies that anybody seeking diagnosis is in fact impaired.
- SamoyedFurFluff 5y agoI never mentioned that a narcissist would seek a diagnosis for their disorder, only that their disorder can be debilitating.
- tartoran 5y agoDebilitating to themselves but infinitely more harmful for the people they interact with. Maybe a diagnosis would open them up to some mitigations on their behavior. Narcissism personality disorder cannot be cured but sufferers can learn to do less harm.
- denton-scratch 5y agoNarcissism != Narcissistic Personality Disorder. A person that lacks narcissism will have a lot of problems.
- watwut 5y agoYou are fighting trend of making up diagnosis by making up diagnosis based on single assumed data point?
