What Hacker News says?
You have to look out for your own kid and do what's best, not my place to speak, but I think we can agree on different approaches to these problems. Not all have to be involved with diagnosis or medicine. I shared these articles in another comment, but this is what I fear is taking over the 'mental health' diagnosis situation atm: https://unherd.com/2022/11/who-decides-if-youre-mentally-ill... https://mentalhellth.x…

HN discussionPsychology/psychiatry has a dark past and seems to change its mind on things very often (often because of political correctness). Borderline a pseudoscience. Until there's a blood test or concrete psychological proof, its just simply not a disease. These articles were great reads on this phenomenon of self diagnosis: https://unherd.com/2022/11/who-decides-if-youre-mentally-ill... https://mentalhellth.xyz/p/the-buzzf…
