i think you're right. if we focus too much on what ails us and that's all it's self defeating. if you're limited in social things try reading a good novel, paint-a good form of self expression, gardening, etc. if you have a friend go for lunch and talk about other things, etc.
sometimes i feel we're over dx'ed. labels that may or not be true. explore the dx's and take online quizzes for feedback. it has helped me. i was dx'ed a new one and i challenged, so to speak, my T. in the end she agreed with me. OOOOPS!!! i'd seen T's for 21 years before i saw her. it didn't make sense to me when she suggested the new dx. if she convinced me only then would i be willing to improve on the new disorder. glad i probed her.
for me i rely on my pdoc for the dx.
hope this helps.
