First of all, well spoken. While most of us by the time we reach adulthood have had enough head colds to properly self diagnose such a condition, there is definitely a HUGE difference between self treating a cold and deciding all by your onesy that you are bipolar, depressed or suffering from some other mental health condition...or that someone else is. While it is often easy to see that there is something going on with someone mentally, it is not okay to assume that we know what unless we have the proper education and training.
