A specific instance of Shrinkbait—any post that uses psychological language, diagnosis, or therapeutic concepts to dismiss, pathologize, or attack a target. Shrinkposts are recognizable by their clinical vocabulary deployed in non-clinical contexts: "narcissist," "borderline," "psychotic," "delusional," "unwell," "needs help," "touch grass," "take your meds." They may mimic concern ("I'm genuinely worried about your mental health") while functioning as attacks. They may diagnose from a single post, pathologize disagreement, or frame normal human variation as disorder. The Shrinkpost doesn't engage content—it commits the speaker to the asylum, then pretends that's compassion.
