Have you ever seen that trend of creating an Instagram or TikTok profile just to talk about your diagnosis? It seems harmless, but it can hide pitfalls that no one tells you about. In this video, I explain why transforming your disorder into an identity can be dangerous for your treatment—and how this choice can trap you in your symptoms, attract malicious people, and even increase your suffering. It's worth reflecting on this before exposing yourself.

On this channel, we discuss mental health and psychiatry in a straightforward way. So, let's think about it?
