trauma of being misdiagnosed

The host, Kylie Vincent, and Hall discuss the "trauma of being misdiagnosed" and an underlying fear of the mental health medical field.They also talk about how a lack of understanding of mental health can make people feel "broken" and "stuck". The conversation covers the concept of neuroplasticity and how understanding it can reduce feelings of hopelessness.The discussion further explores the history of mental health diagnoses, including the DSM and the now-removed diagnosis of "hysteria".They connect these historical diagnoses to systemic issues like patriarchy and the misdiagnosis of women and queer people. The episode concludes with a conversation about the general distrust many people have with the medical system and how they can be retraumatized when attempting to seek help.
