Hi Wv2earth,
From your sharing, I hear that you are feeling inferior having a diagnosis (emotional disturbance). Comparing to sharing with others that you have emotional disturbance, you feel that telling others that you have anxiety would probably draw more care. I know how frustrating and upsetting it could be.
I am not sure about the specific “emotional disturbance” diagnosis which you are referring to, but diagnosis from a mental health perspective is meant to direct practitioners /caregivers/patients to a treatment/intervention plan that can help the patients to deal with their difficulties better, though in reality the experiences received by patients might differ.
Many people have little knowledge about mental health/psychological difficulties, and thus might not understand or know how to response to the “diagnosis- emotional disturbance” you referred to. Thus, people who appeared to be not responding the way you expected, doesn’t imply anything about you or your problems, it might be they having little awareness about it.
Hope my reply helps. Have a good day.
P.S. : Plankton serves an important role in the marine ecosystem !
