i shouldn't look at the notes on posts that i disagree bc the brainrot i find in them..... ooh boy
#do not misconstrue what i mean. i'm not saying “be uncritical” of the establishment#there is a lot of pseudoscience and outdated protocols out there#but so much i see on this website is people replacing pseudoscience with a different brand of pseudoscience that is more palatable to them#when sometimes it wasn't pseudoscience in the first place#like. ask professionals about shit#approach them with an open mind#some of my most important formative experiences were me asking professionals about things i disagree#like specific psych diagnoses etc#people forget that the dsm is published by the american psychiatric association which is bound to the american healthcare system#which inevitably shapes how diagnoses are defined bc u need it to access care that is targeted for that diagnosis#e.g. atypical anorexia is a distinct entity from anorexia nervosa because they require different treatments in the short term#shit is whack but sometimes that whack that most professionals will realize is nonsensical and criticize#is what is necessary to get the care people need. even if it's not perfect
