Y-L-F
I would feel the same way, believe me, if the circumstances had been any different. I’m always verrrryyy skeptical when a psychiatrist tries to tell me there’s something wrong with me. They told me I had ADD, I went along with is for a little while then told them to shove it. They told me I was chronically depressed, I told them to shove it. The only difference here is that before I went in to talk to them I knew something was wrong. I knew that I was hearing things; I was beginning to see that I was paranoid thanks to the help of a very close friend. I’m very familiar with med-school syndrome, and I always try and take anything someone says about my mental condition with a grain of salt. Perhaps I am being a bit too willing to be lead, but for a long time now I knew that something wasn’t quite right.

U.H.,
I think you are a victim.  I think that whoever threw that big word at you that you can't understand, because it's a confusion that has been imposed upon you in order to make you ill, and then they handed you a bill for it so that you could support their abuse, has victimized you rather than to offer you healing for whatever emotional strains life has handed you.
