@wcooperbooks My #Armchair #diagnosis is that he is a #ShortDarkTriad or #ShortDarkQuad #Narcissist. It is more common to find them in the #CSuite set. Moreover, because he is wealthy, he has never experienced #Boundaries and #Limitations and if he did, the culture he is from taught him to ignore boundaries #ThinkOutOfTheBox #BreakDownBarriers #WINTHEGAME and drink the blood of his enemy's children out of their skulls while he rapes their wives.

The obsession with 'overdiagnosis' is a much bigger problem than overdiagnosis itself

The discourse around the 'problem' of 'overdiagnosis' doesn't hold up at all when you consider the actual evidence. Pushing it anyway risks harming so many

Been working on this diagnosis for two years and it's finally over. I'm glad I chose a neurodivergence-affirming assessor to label me as (officially) "ADHD Through-the-Roof" and "So-Very Autistic". Thanks, Embrace Autism. I'm doing exactly what the name of your company suggests. Yay! :-) <3

#socialMedia posts about #ADHD seemed to cause #availabilityBias about post quality and even people's self #diagnosis.

#Chatbot #symptom checkers (CSCs) that prompted #reflection on evidence or counterfactuals mitigated the #bias.

Given the climate in the US, it might be worth considering whether a professional diagnosis is better than a self diagnosis. Weigh up the pros and cons.

I found this list to be useful. Copy it into a word processor or print it off and highlight all the ones you see in yourself. I did that, and got my ex to highlight what he saw in me. Before that I did used to doubt, but seeing that made me realise that I do have a lot of autistic traits (already got fobbed off once when trying for a diagnosis years ago, so I'm trying again).

There's also the raads-r test and a few other good ones on Embrace Autism, and idrlabs.com has a few that give you a cool pie chart. I find the AQ ones to be meh, the questions are too open for interpretation, but my GP required it before he could refer me.

Study: Misdiagnosis of lupus symptoms linked to mental health, trust issues

https://www.upi.com/Health_News/2025/03/02/autoimmune-misdiagnosis-study-lupus-patients/2771740601668/

Patients whose autoimmune disorders such as lupus were initially dismissed by doctors as psychosomatic show long-lasting adverse impacts on their mental health and trust in medicine, according to a new British study.

"We can apply this technique using standard optical microscopes that clinics already have," said Dr Lisa Poulikakos, a professor at the University of California San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering. "And it's more objective and quantitative than what is currently available."

#statstab #283 Is caviar a risk factor for being a millionaire?

Thoughts: Depends on how do you define "risk factor". For diagnosis, prognosis, treatment effect, or aetiology?

#Autism #diagnosis received. Bit surprised, I was preparing so much to be told I’m not. Vindicated now that I felt so convinced the last two years, once I’d spent months not being sure (is it that bad/it’s a spectrum after all, just like I did with ADHD).

Study: AI does not prevent misdiagnoses.

AI-based decision-making aids in emergency medicine are currently of no help. This is the conclusion of a study by Bern University Hospital and the University of Bern.
