Please don’t waste your time commenting “ I’ve been diagnosed so does this apply to me “, because this video is aimed at people that water down mental disorders and think it’s okay to self diagnose at any small inconvenience. This video isn’t to say someone can’t have depression because they feel sad, this video is to say that depression isn’t JUST feeling sad - and it’s unnecessary to self diagnose that if you’re just in a bad mood (for example), but I’m also aware someone can be depressed but get told by doctors it’s “just low mood”, that isn’t the message of this video. This isn’t intended to invalidate people’s experiences, but I think people should be more aware of the unglamorous sides of mental disorders because they’re not just quirky personality traits, they’re disabling. #grwm #neurodivergent #autismawareness #fyp #xyzabc
