A psychologist thinks we are too quick to label everything. I agree:

Children and adults are diagnosed with mental disorders based on their behavior in a fast-paced world, and not on their personal internal world. One much-discussed scenario occurs when a child acts up in school, and the teacher or other school personnel suggests that the child has attention-deficit disorder and needs medicine. The ADD diagnosis is so prevalent today that it’s losing its reliability as a useful diagnosis.

This sloppy labeling is arrived at from observing someone’s behavior. Yet, this process avoids any in-depth critical assessment and establishes a superficial picture of the person, ignoring the fact that every individual is a complex social being.
