Yes to all of this! Thanks for posting this. There's so many of these I have heard from others, and they just made me feel worse--even during times when people thought they were being genuinely helpful. When I was 15, I had a School Psychologist say, "Don't make a mountain out of a molehill." I remember her laughing after she said it, and I just thought my concerns were being dismissed while I was at one of my lowest points. It was while I was paranoid....it stood out to me as being the last thing I really felt like hearing at the moment, because I wanted to be understood more than anything. I was not on any meds yet. I'm so glad I can put those days behind me.
