My diagnosis was changed to bipolar, but I was still subbed here because I was in the hospital and didn't check this place out until recently. Since coming back, I've seen a massive increase in self-diagnosis. A lot of people actively trying to get diagnosed with schizophrenia.

Please, I *strongly* recommend (and I'm not forcing anyone), do not seek out just a diagnosis. Seek out HELP instead. Go in with a mindset of getting the right kind of treatment, whatever that may look like, not a label which doesn't help. Focus on the global, on your health, on your fitness, on social media consumption, whatever, not on a list of symptoms. 

I tried to help myself using a list of symptoms. I've been at it for years. *It doesn't do shit.* It just makes you *become* the label and you get even worse. This is not addressed to those who are diagnosed.

I don't even know what I just typed, hopefully that's clear. If not, I'll just erase it.
