this was long overdue

disclaimer: i have no problem with anyone using labels they find useful and are entitled to - i want to explain my choices, not prescribe them; this will be impassionate and full of strong opinions; if you're a mental health professional, this may offend you; if you respond with bullshit, be prepared to be made an example of

personally i avoid using psychopathological labels, and prefer to describe my challenges explicitly instead
