That is why I am rather anti-diagnosis. They might have their uses in some instances (mainly for informational purposes) but there is just so much wrong with its dehumanising, stigma-inducing and subjectivity (i.e. based on a particular demographic, culture, norm etc.) issues.

Basically, lumping everyone together and then judging others by this standard. That is wrong on so many levels.

Not to mention the pitfalls of diagnosis itself (e.g. notions of validity when many 'disorders' share similar symptoms etc. etc)
Thanks for this!
