Excellent!
The "not wanting to label " translation is " your drowning ,but we don't want to admit ,you were drowning " . As someone who got that excuse for no diagnosis I can say "Rubbish!"
I had a breakdown in secondary school as a result of that .
Review will be on my blog for the publication of the book.
