That's all well and good in theory, and sure, it's something a doctor says

But a lot of the time I've just found that they just don't know what they're talking about, thus indirectly contributing to the stigma by making it seem like it's just "our fault" yet again

I'd love for nothing more than for me to fix my life. Hell, I've been trying my whole life. I've been putting such a great burden on myself I've burned myself out completely. It's far from as simple as that

Sorry, it's not directed at you, I've just seen these influencers pop up here and there and they annoy me, especially by their know-it-all attitude

Understandable, and my additional simplification from an already simplified youtube video doesn't help. He also says that habits don't work well for some people in a DIFFERENT video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVvYn9jkZYQ

Here is the one I talked about where he says they DO work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rq6K7yxaNaM

That's always been the curse of TV doctors long before the internet. Simplification & telling what they want to hear wins the biggest audience.
