redditors make up a new disorder to cope with being r-slurred

Every problem is another mental illness. Like collecting badges lmao. Heaven forbid people take some responsibility or face the fact that they may need to work a tiny bit harder than others to be good at something.

Let me get this straight. In your tiny worldview - people acknowledging, accepting, and understanding their mental illness is a bad thing? It's not always solved by "working a tiny bit harder". Sometimes it's a disability/illness that requires learning how to approach something completely differently. People like you that assume that mental illness/disability is the evasion of responsibility and work is pure idiocy.

Having a mental disability isn't fun. Not being able to see things in the same way or approach problems in a way normative society dictates is acceptable isn't convenient. People like you that stigmatize mental issues are a huge contributor to this ridiculous perception.

At least educate yourself before making absurdly stupid statements like this.

educate yourself sweaty

nope. theres psychological (most mental illnesses), and neurological. for example schizophrenia and adhd are listed as both psychological and neurological because the symptoms fall into both categories, and are partly caused by structural issues in the brain

The psychological precedes the neurological. Neurological changes are a result of altered behavior/thinking aka psychology.

Ambiguous, not well defined structural issues in the brain.

idk, all I know is that apparently it's in the DSM-5 so it's a real thing.

Of course that's not going to stop me from making fun of people who can't tell if 69420 or 42069 is bigger lol
