Honestly, as a German I can not quite understand the obsession of the English speaking world with the question whether a word exists or not. If you have to express something for which there is no word, you have to make a new one, preferably by combining well-known words, and in the very same moment it starts to exist. Agree?
Deutsche Freunde, could you please create for me a word for the extreme depression I feel when I bend down to pick up a piece of litter and discover two more pieces of litter?
um = around
die Welt = world
die Umwelt = environment
ver = prefix to indicate something difficult or negative, a change that leads to deterioration or even destruction that is difficult to reverse or to undo, or a strong negative change of the mental state of a person
der Müll = garbage, trash, rubbish, litter
-ung = -ing
die Vermüllung = littering
ver- = see before
zweifeln = to doubt
-ung = see before
die Verzweiflung = despair, exasperation, desperation
die Umweltvermüllungsverzweiflung = …
This is a german compound on the spot master class and I am LIVING
I don’t think ‘cute’ is the right term to use here…
“internal chaos and restlessness” Scaring people into taking stimulants by telling them they’ll commit suicide because a random “psychologist” probably being paid by a drug company says so…You people are too much….
lmao ahsksjdsljdks “you people are too much” says the big pharma conspiracy theorist
‘Because the non-randomized studies only involve children taking the drug, there is no way to judge whether the drug caused the effect.’
A line from the linked article. Talk about cherry picking data to make a biased point.
Also, psychologists can’t prescribe meds unless they are also medically licensed. And they tend not to be a fan of meds.
CUTE??????????????? MY TRAUMAS DONT SAY THE SAME
To drive this home about a big disparity between diagnosis for boys vs. Girls, im a trans man. Growing up i always complained about my symptoms. I was hospitalized in 7th grade after a suicide attempt and failed school every year and did 4 years of summer school in a row before dropping out my 2nd time doing 10th grade. I was put on Ritalin as an antidepressant but never diagnosed with ADHD formally. I’m now 21, post transition, my new psych didnt know about me being trans and after 10 mins of our intake meeting she asked how long ive been dealing with such severe adhd symptoms and i said my whole life and she asked why it wasnt on my chart and i said i was never diagnosed and she said its one of the easiest things to diagnose in young boys. Then i came out to her and she had the biggest fucking shift of “ah ha! To rage, to sad” and immediately put it in my fuckin file.
