Ah, tik tok. Making young people think normal human behavior is a new flavor of mental illness since 2016.

My friend thinks that not wanting to do the things you don't like and only wanting to do things you do like is ADHD

Jokes on them, you can't even do the things you like.

I'm happy that we live in a world where therapy and seeking mental help has been mostly de-stigmatized.

That being said there is definitely something horribly toxic about people diagnosing each over social media. "You know that thing that you struggle with? It's not a personal failing; It's a disorder with a name, a treatment plan, and a community of weirdos to teach you a bunch of advanced psychology terms to describe your every single thought."

Painting with a wide brush there. There are legit doctors of various disciplines providing actual real info on the platform. Often people have questions, and often they get the right push to find answers.

But sure, it's just a misinformation dancing app (it has that, too).

Now I kinda wanna see what misinformation interpretive dance looks like ๐Ÿ˜„

You wouldn't get it ๐Ÿ˜œ

That's already my relationship with REGULAR interpretive dance, so the experience should be comfortingly familiar ๐Ÿ˜

Just use TikTok on mute. Every dance becomes an interpretive dance without any music.

Without it being a one-on-one meeting, this just leads to self diagnosis. Every health issue is either going to be cancer or autism.

Or it helps people go seek diagnosis. Which it does.

Don't be so dismissive of modern technology.

Yeah, there are bad actors, but people aren't stupid just because they use a specific app (not to mention, bad actors get called out often). Your moral superiority is showing.
