It’s exactly why I do not label any of the mental psychological idioms my therapist gave me to other people. I’ve seen loads of folks who pretty much brag about these things use them as excuses to be shitty or negligent. I run like the wind anytime I hear someone brag or lament (usually just a backdoor brag) that they are “empathic.” I’m very cautious around people who refer to their “anxiety disorder” or “autism”—especially if they do it regularly, publicly (on social media), or very early upon meeting them. And don’t get me started about personality disorders. I know people who are legitimately trying their best with all these things, but the ones who really are rarely wear the labels on their sleeves.
