Sarra's Take on Self-Diagnosis

In this episode, I dive into the growing trend of self-diagnosis. Why so many people are turning to it, and whether it’s actually helping or harming us. With mental health content everywhere, it’s easier than ever to recognize symptoms in ourselves… but where do we draw the line between awareness and misinterpretation?I explore the role of social media, the impact of stigma, and why feeling “seen” online can sometimes lead to oversimplified labels. This episode isn’t about dismissing people’s experiences- it’s about understanding them more deeply and questioning whether self-diagnosis brings clarity or confusion.
