No. No I will not give self-diagnosed little shits the benefit of the doubt because they read through some websites and got some result on an online "test" and now are convinced they know more than a professional.

Because guess what? A lot of the people self-diagnosing are actively or passively hurting real mentally ill people.

I get that you're talking about a select group of people here but I'm just curious...

If people aren't getting information from websites and such, how are they supposed to even realize they might need help?

One of the people I've talked to only stared to realize they might be depressed when the read the symptoms from a book.

To get help, most need to have some understanding that something is not quite right. Why begrudge their source?

Oh no, I have nothing against taking information from a website or a book. Even some of the tests available online can be useful. But only if people actually use those resources as a reason to get a real diagnose. Like, I know an online test that's for finding out if you have certain symptoms that correspond with the symptons of depression and if you have a high score, it basically says "you might have depression, you should go see a specialist". But people who self diagnose don't do this, they take the test and decide "oh hey that's it, I got myself some depressions now yay!" and don't even think about trying to get a real diagnose. And those are the people I can't stand.
