A psychologist’s job is to help people and help people’s self esteems. So why would psychologists make up a ”syndrome” whose characteristics basically appeal to the entire American society? By diagnosing people (which again, is basically all Americans) with this “syndrome” psychologists are not helping people and their self esteem’s, they are hurting them. They are hurting them because this “syndrome” is not a problem! If everyone has it, it is normal. Why would they want to diagnose someone as having a syndrome when, chances are, they have enough problems to deal with in the first place. I think that they should stick to diagnosing people with real diseases and syndromes, as well as only disgnosing them when it is truly necessary as it is in most medical cases. I just dont understand why they would want to invent something else that they can tell people they have. Do we really need to continue to invent things that can be wrong with someone?
