MODERATORS
Too many people insist they know what’s best for you simply because it worked for them.
Especially frustrating if you are a healthcare professional. It is astonishing how many people give out bad medical advice here,on Reddit, Facebook,etc. with the notion of "well it worked for me".
Often it didn't even work.
I mean, yes, I know, it is a way for people to recover control after they "lost it" to their body. But at least don't brag about it on the internet and even more don't start a fight with someone who clearly has more knowledge due to professional training and years of experience.
I've seen people fight the world leading specialist team on Reddit before.....
Especially annoying if you're neurodivergent, and they evidently know nothing about it.
I want to follow your advice but I don't know if it's the best fit for me.
