Do you ever think that maybe a diagnosis you received may have come back to bite you?

I know my wife wishes she had never been officially diagnosed with depression, as it precludes her from some jobs she wanted to apply for. How true this is is reality, I don’t know.
I’m 50/50. On one hand it’s interesting and good to know about yourself and your issues but it is a double-ended sword. I was diagnosed with ASPD a little while back among other things and while I’m glad I understand the root for a lot of my problematic traits I now also have a piece of paper that makes me look bad if I have to go to court.
I am really glad and very priveleged to have been diagnosed with ADHD. However, I worry that my official diagnoses might put me in danger soon
In the Netherlands you can remove your ADHD diagnosis (at least when moving from child to adult care, if I recall correctly)
I wish I straight up just didn’t have the things I was diagnosed with. The diagnosis themselves haven’t changed anything other than now I at least know I am not a piece of shit on purpose.
I get this. All the time.
Is it the depression or is it just me? Am I just a piece of shit?
I’m really feeling this, man.
Celiac is a real pain in the ass and makes me sound unhinged at a restaurant.
Are you severe? Any complications as a result?
I’m not sure if I’m severe - I get a three-day migraine that is not unresponsive to medication if I eat gluten. 🤷 I was vitamin deficient and had damage to my intestines, but that’s fixed now. I have a lot of other weird food stuff going on, but am still unclear if it is even related. The biggest complication is not being able to eat out easily. And I’m that person at parties that I brings their own food.
I’m so used to not eating out, eating at family gatherings. Cooking everything from scratch with salt only. Low fodmap, low sugar, low fat. I have SIBO. Liver issues, kidney failure, migraines, basically systemic issues. Can’t tolerate anything hardly at all. Top 9 allergen free. I feel like a basket case of issues with mine. So I was curious about you.
Oh! I didn’t realize it can cause other things. I have hashimotos, can’t eat soy or animal products and am dizzy sometimes when holding completely still. You are not alone - I just didn’t connect all of mine with celiac.
How would it be better if you hadn’t been diagnosed?
I guess I was thinking if I didn’t have it, which means I could eat everything without having to ask a million questions or carefully researching products/ingredients.
If I wasn’t diagnosed but still had it, I’d be very sick and malnourished.
It ain’t nothing, but fuckin eczema lol. Gotta lotion up every day and even then, sometimes you get random flare ups.
It’s good to know that I was diagnosed with food allergies. I might not have ever known what was making me feel horrible all this time.
I will never be able to get a small engine private pilot license due to fainting, despite it literally never happening unless I’m standing up…
Airplanes pull G, making it far more intense than being standing. You would absolutely faint in a plane; this one is kinda fair, sorry bud.
I’ve got 10 hours in a little ultralight. Pre-diagnosis. I’m not looking to fly a jet fighter. I get more G’s in a hang glider.
Depression 100% I have lost so much of my youth to it, and even now with my meds and lifestyle changes it still finds its way back into my life. Hell, depression is the reason why I’m 21 and still in highschool! It’s an awful condition
