i have this friend who i feel is almost obsessed with her mental illness. i say this because she always wants more diagnoses, and every little thing she does she blames it on her illnesses. because of this she tends to hurt people, but apologize on the basis of ‘it must be my illnesses’ or ‘maybe i have this other illness’. as someone with my own mental issues, i try to explain to her that she is much more than her diagnoses and although they make a big part of her life, she has other parts too but she always gets so offended when i say anything of that sort.

am i wrong for telling her that? or is it possible someone can be obsessed?
