You wouldn’t self-diagnose yourself with cancer. So why are these teens online self-diagnosing themselves with severe psychiatric disorders? And why are we allowing and encouraging it as valid?
this post gave me self-diagnosed cancer
the most epic softball I have ever seen on this site
“Why are we allowing.”
Ah yes, that old canard. I agree with communismkills: Teenagers who self-dx and subsequently post about it online need to be punished by PoliceMob.
Considering:
- the size of the tumblr teenager self-dx crowd
- the fact that they’re hiding behind false names
- the additional anonymity of IP addresses and the fact that any single IP address might belong to a household with several teenagers or possibly even an adult who pretends to be a self-dx teenager online
- the difficulty of asserting jurisdiction over possible foreign teenagers
- and other issues (margin too small etc.)
I predict that the costs of a thorough purge will run into no more than $50 billion - a steal compared to the War on Drugs - so we should definitely stop allowing teenagers to self-diagnose online.
Adults can continue to do so - they, after all, have rights.
