They can diagnose it but as it is not there area of specialty they may be wrong. Also if you wanna get help with the it or find if that's truly the case definitely seek out a Psych
Doctors normally just diagnose for depression and anxiety because the rest of the mental health issues can have overlaps and mimic other things so those need a psychiatrist many times to get a diagnoses
I was diagnosed by my PCP a d then he sent me to a psych for a 2nd opinion!!
My clinic told me I had gad and depression. Psych told me it's PTSD and bipolar disorder.
Any Dr can diagnose. A psychiatrist just specializes
why wouldn't any dr be able to do it?
