i needed the label in order to get the meds i needed to help me get better. i guess the label in this case is usefull in itself. no one else can read your heart except yourself, you are a good person and shouldnt let a label define yourself, although sometimes i do feel like it does sometimes help but it comes in handy when im having a bad day because then i can tell myself i am disabled and the label helps me remember i do have a problem emotionally. then if im doing really bad i can and am allowed to take an extra med which does help.
