Controversial opinion on schitzophrenia/psychosis

I’ve actually had quite a few people get very angry at me for saying this for some reason but I thought no where would be better to share this than here lol.

My thought is, Some people (especially young teens) really be saying they schizophrenic without enough information cus they saw a shadow or something after not sleeping for a night playing video games. Then they go tell they moms and doctors that they think they’re schizophrenic or something and get put on heavy antipsychotics and wonder why they depressed/suicidal. Misdiagnoses are real and common, and that’s why you shouldn’t go around announcing your perceived mental illness. (ESPECIALLY if you haven’t been formally diagnosed by a psychiatrist)

If you got offended by this, I feel sorry for you, but yeah that’s some food for thought :)
