most people here lack empathy and want everyone to suffer like they imagine to have. human nature, perhaps. a lot of people do have tendencies to all kinds of disorders and the definitions are broad and easy to identify with. treatment might improve the lives of some of those people, and some it might make worse. what is definitely missed by people excited to gave an "answer" for why they feel the way they do is over identification with the illness.  i have health problems that are very challenging but i don't identify as disabled because it felt like a self limiting thing to do. if you identify too much with a set of symptoms you will definitely bake them in, so to speak.
