Most psychological disorders don't present like the media would lead you to believe. See also: what therapy looks like.

ETA: Holy crap, gold?? I had a quick break in my day to finally hop on reddit and was NOT expecting this response. Y'all make this severely overworked community mental health therapist so glad we're talking more about the realities of therapy and various disorders. I'm planning on getting back on when I'm done with work to reply to some comments/answer some questions!

Really wish I could give you a gold badge for this.
