  1. I have noticed a disturbing trend in people with mental health issues: reliance on self diagnosis. Looking up symptoms and bringing said symptoms to a professional and getting all the information possible on a diagnosis is helpful, but relying on a non-professional opinion will not help you! It will only hinder progress. Even doctors know that they should not (and ethically cannot) treat themselves. I know quite a few people who self diagnose and do not seek proper treatment, or do not follow professional treatment regimens because of either distrust of professionals or misguided trust in their own abilities. If you believe you have a problem, seek professional help. Write all of your symptoms down and gather information on them. DO NOT self diagnose and get upset when a medical professional does not agree with your amateur diagnosis. On the other hand, if the doctor is plain ignoring you or discounting major symptoms, find another professional. Don't try to do it yourself.
