Can only Psychologists and Psychiatrists diagnose, or can any mental health professional do so?

Mental health issues are given names to help distinguish one group of symptoms from another. This is kind of free form fitness formula. So first, you need to find out of which illness you’re going through:

Is it Anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder BPD, Cannabis and mental health, Depression, Drugs, alcohol and mental health, Eating disorders, Personality disorders, Psychosis, Schizoaffective disorder, Schizophrenia.
