[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it is weird that a life-long label could be so built up in a kid's/family's mind? no, it's not. [/quote] It’s weird that a DSM diagnosis has now become a “life long label” and identity instead of just one factor in your life, particularly for older kids and adults who likely have the most mild cases. I have fairly serious anxiety and I don’t call myself “an anxious” or see everything through the lens of my GAD diagnosis. Somewhere along the line this kid was led to believe the dx is more meaningful than it is. [/quote]
