    Diagnosis Is Big Business

    23/06/2026 | 5 mins.
    There's a lot of money in medicine and pharmaceuticals, and this puts a huge survival pressure on the industry.

    The Diagnosis Imperative

    21/06/2026 | 8 mins.
    Healthcare professionals' priority is to diagnose you. That is what they are trying to do. But is it necessary? Is it functional? Is it right?
    And what's more - patients themselves are often biased towards obtaining a diagnosis.
    This is a snippet from my Wednesday 17/6 episode, The DIagnosis Imperative Part 1.

    How many people have you heard saying "I think I have autism/ADHD/anxiety/depression because of x, y or z"? I'm sure you've heard someone, because diagnoses of this kind have become trendy.

    The Diagnosis Obsession - Part 1 (#149)

    17/06/2026 | 45 mins.
    How many people are walking around right now with diagnoses for ADHD, depression, anxiety or other similar conditions that are unnecessary and useless - with dodgy diagnoses?
    In part 1 of The Diagnosis Obsession, we explore why the health system runs on diagnoses, why this biases how we understand health, and why ordinary health-system realities reveal the obvious problem.
    Disclaimer: I am not qualified to diagnose or treat medical conditions.
