Mental health awareness is growing and that’s a good thing. But when clinical terms like “trauma,” “narcissist,” or “gaslighting” are overused or misused, it can blur the line between real diagnoses and everyday struggles.

Let’s keep learning and talking but with care and accuracy. Respecting the true meaning of these terms helps reduce stigma and supports those truly living with mental health challenges.
