Hi all! Hope you are well. I'm messaging here because I'll likely be making some edits over the next two months on this page as a part of a class assignment. Particularly, I plan to add to or clarify text from the Critique subsections "Obscuring the Root Causes of Psychological Distress" & "Overdiagnosis." I'll be mainly staying out of the way of the larger stuff, so I hope I can contribute to the knowledge base in smaller, more subtle ways. I want to thank you in advance for your suggestions... I appreciate your patience while I figure out Wikipedia :)Klrgmclass (talk)02:42, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
