Very much enjoying this article from Derek Thomson today: "The point is not that envy is always useless or often useful. The point is to look past the heavy and sickly feeling of envy to make peace with the fact that envy exists. Like sadness, jealousy, anger, and anxiety, it’s there. It is common and nearly universal. It is sending us a signal, even when we don’t want to pay attention to it and torture ourselves by trying to ignore. If we have the courage and clarity to look our worst feelings straight in the face, we can see them for what they are and feel a bit better about the fact that life is not, cannot, and will never be a project to banish bad feelings. Bad feelings are common. That’s not a tragedy. It’s just life." - Derek Thomson

If you’ve ever contemplated whether you have ADHD, depression, or any other psychological disorder, this article may be for you.

For years, I’ve shared a similar message to those I work with in response to the question, “Do I have ____ (insert psychological diagnosis)?”.

As humans we like to think in categories. It brings certainty. Yet this question comes with more complexity than a ticking of boxes.

It can help to understand why our suffering doesn’t always lend well to categories, never mind permanent categories.

Neither genetics nor brain scans can distinguish a person with depression, A.D.H.D. or autism from one without.
