Wrong diagnosis are ALWAYS BAD
I do not believe that any MD should diagnose psych issues any more than a PDOC should diagnose medical issues. When I was dealing with anorexia in 2004/2005 my MD said he would care for the physical aspects of it but expected my PDOC to deal with the psych issues involved. Though when I was in the medical hospitalnwhere my pdoc didn't have treating priviledges my MD assigned the on staff psychologist & pdoc to see me. Obviously the diagnosis was obvious on that one but they basically ignored the PTSD that was causing it again.
While labels can create stigma so can not having one. If my EX-H would have been diagnosed correctly instead of just adult ADD he would have been better understood. Instead we all thought he was just a jerk. Not that he wouldn't have been even with the correct diagnosis but at least then everyone would have been more understanding as to why he was that way. He also might have been able to get the help he really needed with his financial irresponsible behaviors. Not being diagnosed thoroughly may end up landing him homeless in the long run....sad but I could no.longer tolerate his behaviors.
