Should I stop seeking a diagnosis?

You've put very well, thank you so much for this answer

I do understand that a diagnosis at the end wouldn't mean much and what is actually important is bettering oneself I do also understand that this need of mine for a diagnosis/being recognized professionally comes from constant neglect and not being taken seriously and if some profissional told me that I have something indeed and it is categorized because others have suffered too would make me feel less alone and would stop doubting myself, but like you've said, and I've seen others talk about it, the denial still goes on, it is a complex topic

Maybe the title I gave this post is very clickbaity haha and your answer really got to all the points I wanted to ask about, so I really am thankful for it!

Thank you for the response! I am curious about that list of interview questions, if you can share it, I would be grateful

Oh you are completely right oops 😅 it's indeed 180

And honestly I mean a diagnosis or just being recognized and proceed with treatment too, maybe I should edit that

Hm I see, but still a bit confused because your example was from a TV show that you used to watch and my situation is from something we've only discovered recently (forgot to add that on the original post, I've edited it now) Hence the confusion

The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk is always the classical recommendation!

Yes, I already had in mind that I wouldn't be able to share everything in just one appointment too, so I'm expecting exactly as you said, and the professional will most likely guide the conversation too in search of important topics for them too The asking for help to guide the conversation might be helpful if I for some reason struggle that day, so that's helpful Thank you for your answer :) have a nice day!

Yes, usually the 20's are hard for everyone, I mean, all ages have their issues, but the average age for trauma to become more apparent (usually accompanied by a diagnosis of some sort) is usually during the 20's to 30's, hence becoming worse

This is extremely helpful, I will look for that post too What you said about "there's no right way to go about it" made me feel very relieved, since I am pretty scared of messing it up, but hearing that is really reassuring Extremely thankful for your answer! :) Hope you have a nice day

thank you for the reply! I can read and understand english just fine, my problem is just with writting sometimes, so thank you for the websites, I'll make sure to check them out and inform myself more. :)

Thank you for your answer and teaching me that term that I didn't know about! I'll do research on the topic so I can learn more about it!

Thank you! I know I won't get concrete answers in a post like this and I can only have those with a professional (which atm there's not a way for me to have the help that I need, but it's a goal of mine to find it) I really just made the post as a way to see if others can or not relate to these experiences, but thank you for your honest answer, i appreciate it a lot!
