Not everything has to be written off to some mental ailment. (sopuli.xyz)

I see a worrisome tendency to "diagnose" anything in this space as symptoms of any mental or psychological ailment.

Self diagnose is dangerous, diagnosing others is even more dangerous.

I do not doubt many are well intended but someone can be aloof, forgetful, be tired, messy or lazy without that implying one suffers from some undiagnosed issue.

I kinda disagree. Getting diagnosed with ADHD and taking medicine for it is LIFE CHANGING. Getting help for your issues should not be frowned upon.

Exactly: getting proper help, which should involve a licensed practitioner, not an anonymous stranger.

oh in that case I agree, your post was not clear about that

I sincerely apologize for that. Where exactly am I being vague or misleading?
