I think your take is totally ignorant, and your problem is that you imagine people are being diagnosed with mental illness and/or committing suicide because of “typical human misery”.
Physical condition is an excellent analogy. Many obese people are told that any physical complaint is caused by their weight and told to go exercise. This includes people who are later correctly diagnosed with asthma, broken bones, hormone deficiencies and appendicitis. How do you think they feel to be told that they are causing their own problems and should stop doing that?
- Spivak 4y agoThis shit is a rabbit hole that never ends. If there is anything about you that is seen as abnormal by a doctor (including being a woman yikes — and age also yikes) it gets blamed for everything regardless of whether it makes any sense at all. I swear so many doctors treat medical diagnosis like it’s a game of spot the difference between you and the reference 25 year old white man.
