A Personal Account of Receiving Multiple Psychiatric Diagnoses
Original: Opinion | I Was Labeled Bipolar, Depressed, O.C.D. Here’s Why.
A New York Times opinion piece recounts the author's experience of being labeled bipolar, depressed, and obsessive-compulsive, and explains the reasons behind those diagnoses. First-person essays on mental health labels tend to spark discussion about psychiatry, misdiagnosis, and stigma, and this piece is drawing attention for its candid look at living under multiple overlapping diagnostic labels.
Why now: Readers are engaging with a candid personal essay about psychiatric diagnosis and what labels like bipolar, depression and OCD mean for patients.
