Re: Self diagnosed mental issues

EXACTLY. Knowing something is wrong =/= I know exactly what is wrong. Knowing that something is wrong will probably get you in the right ballpark, but an actual diagnosis will be much more precise.

But my point would be that, you know. Figuring out where exactly it hurts, and getting some kind of understanding of what makes it worse and what makes it better, is not a bad thing. Obviously a doctor's diagnosis is precise and their advice is useful, but that doesn't preclude your own understanding of your own body or your own mind.

But you can't treat something without a diagnosis, and the risk of self-diagnosing something is that you might very well get it wrong, and trying to treat the wrong thing could end up making it worse. There's nothing wrong with going to a doctor and saying "I think I might have this because of X, Y, and Z," but the final verdict should come from the doctor. It may turn out that you actually have Q instead.
