That may have been true in the 80s and early 90s.
It's still true. There are soooooo many people with diagnoses that don't match what they actually have. And some consulted professionals are way too quick to diagnose these things, especially in the child psychiatry industry, especially with child psychiatrists (who often put too much emphasis on one family member), especially with things like what I described. It's far from an archaic experience.
