Oh my gosh! When providers say someone is just making it up, that's so dangerous! My therapists never believed what I was saying when I told them, "I'm suicidal. I hate my life. I feel totally hopeless." I was in really deep depression, but because I always look physically like I'm okay, they never believed me. I think my experience happened for a different reason, but the result is the same - it's dangerous for providers to think they know better than the patient what the patient is experiencing. Ridiculous.
