I don't assume to be the only one with experience. The only thing I do assume is from the comments I've read in this thread, most must be made through ignorance. People who don't understand what they are talking about. People who should perhaps do their research before throwing serious terms about. When you are that close to a subject matter, you soon learn not to treat it so light.

Much of the discussion has been around whether Caroline's behaviour has been 'disturbed'. The OP used, not a medical term, but the colloquial 'mental' and indeed invited opinions from board members. I don't think you should dismiss everyone's views because they are not professionals, and you object to people’s terminology, especially on a board like this. Furthermore it's Caroline's behaviour itself that's caused concern in the first place, because it is so extreme.
