Self-diagnosing 

A person with no life who finds different mental illnesses to look 'quirkier', or to excuse their rude behaviour. Guess what, Stacy, you do not have OCD because you like to put your pencils in a rainbow pattern!!! You also don't have ADHD because you have a sad amount of fidget toys!!!!!

person: Why aren't you paying attention? I literally just told you my cat died.

Quirky Crackhead Stacy: Oh, you didn't know? I took a buzzfeed quiz and i'm Self-diagnosing myself with adhd, deppression, did, and anxiety so stfu

self diagnosis

When a person diagnoses themselves based on websites like WebMD and Mayo Clinic.

Step 1: "Owww it hurts"

Step 2: Google where it hurts

Step 3: Examples come up on the search

Step 4: Compare the respective sites

Step 5: Come to conclusion

Jeff googled "irregular pain in the kidney area" to see what was up. WebMD told him that it could just be a muscle strain; this was Jeff's self diagnosis and he decided that was the problem and didn't go to the doctor. 8 months later Jeff found out he had terminal hip bone cancer and that he had only 2 years to live.

Elise had a slight pain in her neck after falling off her bed in the middle of the night and hitting herself. Being a chronic neurotic, she feared for the worst, googled it, just in case. She self diagnosed herself to have had throat cancer. She went to the doctor and found out it was a simple trapezius sprain.

Self-Diagnosis 

is the process of diagnosing, or identifying, medical conditions in oneself. It may be assisted by medical dictionaries, books, resources on the Internet, past personal experiences, or recognizing symptoms or medical signs of a condition that a family member previously had.

Self-diagnosis is prone to error and may be potentially dangerous if inappropriate decisions are made on the basis of a misdiagnosis.Because of the risks, self-diagnosis is officially discouraged by governments

Self Diagnosis Is Valid 

A Tumblr tag used by idiots who think it's okay to pretend to have autism or that think they have autism because of TikTok. Same with DID, ADHD, Tourette's, and other disabilities/disorders. Bro? They're serious mental conditions. Disorders aren't xenogenders! And no, you don't know better than a doctor with a PHD. Get off Tumblr, touch grass, and get a life.

Emily, 13 year old self-diagnosed autism/DID haver and coiner of some new dissociative disorder or "system" trait: GRRR! I'm sick of these uneducated fools thinking that my self diagnosis isn't valid. DOCTORS HATE WOMEN AND BLACK PEOPLE!!!11!! DiAGNOSIS IS A PRIVILEGE!!!!! #SELF DIAGNOSIS IS VALID
Lucy, an actual autistic person: What the fuck are you on about? You do know that Autism doesn't just mean you're forgetful and DID isn't the hip trendy disorder that everyone wants, right? I deal with a lot of crap from idiots for my autism and it's extremely disrespectful that you-
Emily: ABELIST!!!!!! DNI RIGHT NOW!!!!! *blocked*
