The subjectivity of others with even slightly different mental states can be nigh impenetrable.

I can't count the number of times I start talking about executive dysfunction and someone immediately chirps in with "make a list, chunk it down, say you're going to do this for 20 minutes and then take a break." I eventually started asking in response, "Do you suggest to your depression patients simply not being sad? Do you tell your anxiety patients not to worry about stuff? Because that's what I'm hearing, and it tells me you don't understand the situation."
