No Street Lights Podcast - Real Stories on Mental Health, Resilience, and Growth

Mental Health Misdiagnosis: You’re Not Broken, Just Misunderstood | CORE #1


Listen Later

Could your diagnosis be wrong? In the debut episode of No Street Lights Core, we dive deep into one of the most overlooked issues in mental health: misdiagnosis.

Many people are labeled with anxiety, depression, or even personality disorders, when the real story is something different. Co-hosts Tim and Aaron share personal stories, real-life examples (including past NSL guests), and powerful insights into how misdiagnosis can derail healing, and how to get back on track.


🎙️ In this episode, you’ll discover:

• What mental health misdiagnosis actually means

• Why doctors and therapists sometimes get it wrong

• How undiagnosed and overlooked symptoms delay recovery

• Real stories of misdiagnosis from Tim, Aaron, and past guests

• 5 practical steps you can take if you suspect your diagnosis is wrong

• How to self-advocate, track symptoms, and ask the right questions


⚠️ Misdiagnosis doesn’t mean you’re broken, it means you haven’t found the right map yet. This episode is here to guide you, support you, and remind you: you’re not alone on this road. Mental Health Misdiagnosis: You’re Not Broken, Just Misunderstood.
