I do think that’s broadly an issue, and unfortunate when a condition catches “cool” factor and suddenly a bunch of people want to be that. Feel like the trend started with" Asperger’s" in the 90s when a certain group of people liked the concept of “Autistic, but not bad, it just means an asshole who is smart”. Over time we now have ASD, ADHD, and DID as conditions that are actively desired among certain subcultures. Which really can muddy the waters when it comes to mental health diagnosis.
