Anyone else have parents who rubbish your condition?

I was diagnosed with some personality disorder and my parents say it's complete bullshit.

Anyone have similar issues?

My mom firmly believes depression is just a way for people to get out of doing things they need to be, and that if I really really wanted to, I could just stop.

My mom thought I could stop too if I just listened to what she said. She stopped thinking this after I broke down and started crying in front of her.

Parents don't believe I have bipolar after meds and a stint in the psych ward

They still think I only have depression. Granted I haven't gotten a diagnosis yet, next appointment is in a week.

My parents think mental illness is a fiction created by the jews to sell drugs and kids with symptoms are just imagining it and can stop any time.

I had an interesting childhood.

My mother believes in metaphysical things and spirits and would sometimes say that I was doing badly because I was in the middle of a "spiritual awakening." Then other times she would angrily tell me there is nothing wrong with me and I just need to "get out there." Later getting treatment, any time I shared my successes of my therapy program she got this disinterested look on her face and wouldn't say anything except "oh," and "that's good" like she made an active effort to not care. I guess at least she didn't say negative things other than "therapists don't help" a few times. For some reason I valued her opinion at that time so it was hurtful not to have support. Moving out from living with negative people was one of the best things I ever did

My parents doesn't want to get me to a psychiatrist because they "don't want for somebody to place a label on my forehead".

OP here. My mum said that I was only diagnosed with some shit because they have to put things on paper to look as though they're doing their job. My therapist that is

My father recently found my copy of "Depression and Anxiety for Dummies" and was surprised by it. When I started asking how he never noticed that I had no friends for years, was constantly anxious and lived in my room he quickly changed the subject and disengaged. I really don`t see how you can live with me and not notice that I`m depressed and had no friends for years, even casual observers commented on it.

I also recently told my sister about my drunken suicide attempt and she didn`t even bat an eye to it, years ago I told her about how I have depression and she said something akin to "No you don`t." I`m fairly convinced that she thinks I told her these things for attention.

I really have no idea how they just gloss over how depressed I was during my formative years.

My mother is supportive of me but I feel like she still thinks I could do more than I do (which is nothing except for lying in bed all day). But I really can't. I feel like she sees me as a parasite.

My mum just dismisses it and says if I lived as a normalfag and had a social life it would magically be cured, and that it's all caused by stress (which just makes it worse/noticeable to others).

I feel for the people who have parents who dismiss the doctors completely.

I'm type the of nigga who be schizophrenic but my parents think I was smoking crack and meth but I was just smoking weed so the blame the drugs but I was still psychotic long after smoking weed, court ordered to be a antipsychotics, still aint all bad I can apply for the government money and housing and do drugs and game like I usually do, still I was sober for a long time and that's when I was the most depressed but not as insane, still crazy though. Damn I wish I had a succubus qt GF. Got prescribed dexedrine for muh negative symptoms it's pretty good and when I go crazy on it it's more interesting and less annoying then being sober.

Being called rude because you're socially stunted and timid and you'd rather eat on your own than with a stranger is the worst
