Suggestions of over-diagnosis of mental health conditions miss a key point:

'Diagnosis becomes the main tool for unlocking help. When this is the only mechanism that gives access to medication, therapy or educational support, diagnosis rates rise not because people are exaggerating distress, but because the system leaves them no other route to assistance'!

Its not too much diagnosis, but the struggle to access what little help & support is available!

Just remind me. How long now has health been underfunded in this backward country?
in reply to Steve Woods

@wood5y

Well you might argue, since the start of the NHS in 1947, I guess.... but most seriously in the last decade & a half in its most recent iteration of budgetary crisis

in reply to Emeritus Prof Christopher May

Ah, the long view.

Prescription charges was the first crack in the #NHS, introduced in the 1950s.

But yes, 15 years of austerity and putting Humpty back together again is even harder.

in reply to Steve Woods

@wood5y I would say that is precisely-right diagnosis. If you need treatment or medication in order to feel or get better, you have the condition.

And yes, prescription charges (which we also have here in Finland) are a uniformly Bad Idea, even if only a modest sum. Medicines are not hamburgers, where the customer can realistically estimate their subjective need in the context of their financial situation, finding the market optimum. This is not a market; it requires medical judgment. Too easy to not get treatment for a serious condition that doesn't feel serious, and then becomes chronic or leads to disability or death - orders of magnitude more expensive than any 'savings' on the medicine.

in reply to Martin Vermeer FCD

@wood5y Also note, as mentioned in the article, that one belief behind the 'overdiagnosis' debate is, that people are 'gaming the system' in order to get advantages other than appropriate treatment. It remains implicit that this is all about mental and neurological conditions, which are widely and counterfactually assumed to be easy to fake - and as an extension to this, assumed to be often / usually / nearly always fake. Someone ought to put this bang in the middle of the table.
in reply to Martin Vermeer FCD

@martinvermeer It's estimated that 25% of people will suffer from mental health problems during life.

I'm beginning to see the over-diagnosis argument as the modern equivalent of the old 'pull yourself together' attitude.

in reply to Steve Woods

@wood5y Precisely. That was in my mind when I started to write the post, but it fell by the wayside.

Now to be fair, a great many sufferers of autism or ADHD can fully function in society and be valuable members of it with minimal but appropriate support or medication - or even completely without, solely on the strength of a correct diagnosis and the self-understanding that comes with it. But denial is just irredeemably dumb.

@martinvermeer @wood5y

yes, that final point is important; diagnosis can lead to improved self-understanding, and through that better ways to 'manage' oneself - here the diagnosis is a route to less expense not more!

🔸 Le vol JetBlue 1112, un Airbus A320 en route de Curaçao vers l’aéroport JFK de New York, a évité de justesse une collision en vol, le vendredi 12 décembre 2025, avec un tanker de ravitaillement KC-135R de l’US Air Force, à une séparation estimée de 2-3 miles nautiques (soit 3,7-5,6 km), à 34 000 pieds au-dessus de la mer des Caraïbes méridionale. Le tanker, sans transpondeur activé, participait à l’opération américaine

Gli sprechi di soldi pubblici ci sono sempre stati e chi li fa non paga o "non ricorda", come si vede nel servizio.

"Un viaggio surreale ma vero tra Calabria e sprechi pubblici: dal mancato Museo del Rock dedicato a Steven Tyler ai progetti falliti di uno zoo tropicale sull'Aspromonte, dove erano arrivati perfino zebre, pitoni e struzzi.

Un'inchiesta che ricostruisce come fondi pubblici siano stati investiti in iniziative mai realizzate davvero."

The echo in the ruins is the sound of apromise broken.Not by a storm,but by silence.The most painful realization for achild is that their distress was televised,cataloged,and then carefully ignored.We became spectators to our own fate.They gave us attention,but never the lifelin

tra l’altro la butto lì, ho in ballo un uscita gastronomica con Davide da tipo 5 anni. Ogni tanto gli mando un reminder, ci esaltiamo, poi non quagliamo.
Estendo l’invito (offro io), così magari lo convinci 😅


This blog post continues a thread I’ve been writing over several months:

▪️ What does the wisdom of the heart mean if AI must be shaped with and for people?
▪️ What does it mean to stay human as AI accelerates?
▪️ What do organisations owe humanity in an AI-driven world?
▪️ Now: mustafasuleymanai ’s idea of “humanist superintelligence” – and what it demands of leaders.

AI is already superhuman in many tasks. The harder question is how we choose to use it.
