Labels help you figure out why you are the way that you are, and sometimes that can help you understand yourself better. I must have a diagnosis in order to fix me. Without labels, we are wandering blindlessly in the dark with no answers. Labels help you to realize that not everything is in your control so one should not feel guilt or beat themselves up. The 1st step to healing is acceptance of ones own flaws. You cant accept what you dont know. Keep looking for the answers that you are searching for. Also, once you have a label you can find similar people who suffer from the same thing, like this site, where you can find support and FINALLY people that understand what you are going thru. It makes you feel better cuz you realize that you are no longer alone in your struggles. Stay strong
