CHAPTER

Rethinking Mental Health Diagnoses

This chapter examines the influence of social media on mental health diagnoses, particularly the rise of self-diagnosis and its implications for identity and recovery. It critiques the DSM's limitations in acknowledging the complexities of mental health, while advocating for a broader approach that encompasses biological, psychological, and social perspectives. Through personal anecdotes and interviews, the conversation highlights the importance of understanding mental health as a part of the human experience rather than merely a set of labels.
