People Hate Self Diagnosis Because It Provides Mad People With Autonomy.

people hate self diagnosis because it provides Mad people with autonomy.

self diagnosis goes against the idea that psychiatriac professionals have unique knowledge - knowledge only obtainable by someone who has studies for years, specifically from a removed & outside perspective to any individual's Madness: even if that student, themselves, is Mad.

self diagnosis goes against the idea that Mad people are inherently incapable of telling their own story - that any ways in which they do communicate, express themselves, etc. is tainted by their Madness and thus unreliable.

self diagnosis says "i know my own bodymind better than anyone; i live here. this is my life. i get to define my experiences." self diagnosis holds self compassion. self diagnosis holds self empowerment.

diagnosis is typically something "given to" Mad people. in psychiatry's eyes, diagnosis is something to describe us that we must have, yet can never attain for ourselves.

so even though self diagnosis takes from the boxes that psychiatry has prescribed, it is still a rebellion. it may not be The Solution to freeing Mad people from psychiatry - but it still means something. to me, at least.

It kinda pisses me off to see people shaming Zooble & Jax for finding Kinger to be annoying / insane because they expect Zooble & Jax to feel some kind of empathy / sympathy about his wife’s abstraction. Zooble & Jax are both around HALF THE AGE of Kinger & Queenie, and I honestly believe that Zooble & Jax joined the circus AFTER Queenie’s abstraction and DO NOT KNOW THAT KINGER EVER HAD A WIFE. No character should be expected to feel empathy / sympathy about an event that they very likely are unaware of ever happening!!! I know I’m gonna get attacked for this and my heart is racing with anxiety as I type this because of that, but I’m just telling you what I believe to be the truth. I don’t intend to offend anyone with this so I’m very sorry if I did!!!

Hey, here’s a concept. What if we stopped saying “but autistic people CAN do all those things” (erasing high support needs) and instead started saying “not being able to do those things doesn’t impact someone’s value as a person nor does it make it okay to commit eugenics”.
