Okay so I want to discuss this issue that makes me a bit upset; in fact it makes me more upset than its supposed to. Now hear me out!
Lately I have been noticing that there's a good amount of kids and teens out there who lack social skills and are presumably introverts. As an extroverted social butterfly myself, I can't help but to notice that a lot of these kids claim they have legitimate "medical issues," and use them to justify their bad behavior habits. For instance, I have actually met people who act like total D-bags and claim that they are "Bi-polar, and that they suffer from anger issues, or struggle with anxiety." They talk a lot of trash but then throw temper tantrums when you defend yourself. The worst part is that people actually go up to these people and pamper them like they are freaking holocaust victims. Either way, Its kind of obvious to decipher when a person sincerely has issues and when they don't. (That means that emo rich kids with parents who give them tons of money are invalid.)
Now, I'm not a psychologist or anything but all of this seems a bit far fetched to me. I know that there are some poor individuals out there who actually suffer from mental issues, but they actual conditions and not just pseudo social problems. If you are shy, just admit it. I'm tired of hearing people say "Oh I am diagnosed with introverted-ness." Theres a big difference between somebody with autism than an attention seeker who wants to act like they have it hard.
Then you have people who say "Oh my child has ADHD hes too hyper active and he runs all over the place."
...
Look... since long ago children have always been crazy and hyper. Don't try to use an actual disorder that some people have to justify them.
Also... just because you are a bit organized does not mean that you have OCD
I know there is a good amount of people here who suffer from REAL problems and not this soft science wannabe psychology. It makes me angry that while some people are actually having it bad, you have these posers who try to act like they are victims.
I myself can admit that I fortunately have no problems of that nature. I am picky but does that mean I have OCD? Heck no. I'm shy sometimes but I'm very social so I'm not going to sit here and yap about how I have anxiety or whatever. Its just simple.
oh and one more thing before I end this rant... JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE FEELING A BIT SAD ONCE IN A WHILE, OR JUST HAVE A BAD DAY DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE DEPRESSED.
