Self-identifying as mentally ill holds the door wide open for abusers to destroy the target's recovery process. Advocates of codependent relationships utilize psychiatric labels to manipulate and brainwash targets into the false belief that they have to rely on others to survive; ultimately destroying the target's sense of self and their autonomy. Psychiatric labels often perpetuate victim blaming, which then leads to people ignoring the primary cause of the target's behavior and/or emotional distress. [For example, high energy young boys are often scapegoated by narcissistic parents, with the label of ADHD.]

Supposed to be ironic?

No. I'm not making the claim that labels are bad. I think labels are useful, especially when I'm short on time and/or I don't have the emotional energy to go into detail about said topic. I am sharing two observations:

1. Manipulative people actively utilize language(labels) to gaslight targets, with the intent to deceive and exploit. 

2. I prefer human experience language, with people I don't know, because there is less chance of being misunderstood. Many labels are culturally based and will vary in meaning from region to region. For example, the label Narcissist is not used in all countries/cultures. Therefore, I might choose to use human experience language with a particular person or group. Instead of saying 'narcissist,' I might say, 'someone with zero empathy and the desire to exploit.
