- Self-diagnosis from TikTok isn't helpful
- Medicating normal feelings creates dependency
- Therapy-speak has replaced actual coping skills
Disagree
- Mental health awareness saves lives
- Destigmatizing struggles helps people get help
- Professional diagnosis beats suffering in silence
- Better to over-identify than ignore problems
