I'm not gatekeeping or denying anything. But many people are not ill, they simply aren't fitting the society standards. Sometimes for a good reason. There's nothing to succeed or to fail in life for example. And sometimes it's the society that discriminate people, not people that are I'll. Social disorders are a very much a true thing, but society disorders also are a thing.
It is a basic strategy of liberalism to make people believe that they are the problem, and they should fix themselves, eventhough many problems come from liberalism itself.
In brief, sometimes you are not the problem, society is. See a doctor if you're in doubt.
