My aunt died from this (my opinion). She spend two years confusion her diagnosis and treatment, and borderline harassing her doctors, by thinking her own research was on point and interpreting all her symptoms through that lens. In the end it wasn't borrelia, parasites, 5G, or any of the other fancies, but just lung cancer that was only diagnosed when it was very well developed.
You're a lay person. You know there is a thing out there called 'foo'.
You've read things that compellingly claim that foo causes xyz symptoms. You also know that some people that have obviously palpable disdain for you claim that foo could never cause these symptoms.
You have xyz symptoms. Are you mentally ill if you think that foo could be the cause?
What’s “compelling”? I’d suggest that any medical theory that relies upon a vast global conspiracy to hide the truth about 5G cannot possibly be compelling.
If someone can’t tell the difference between what’s real and what’s not, they are not well.

Except some vast global conspiracy isn't the only way you could arrive at 5g having some deleterious effects on some subset of people. Were xrays for shoe fitting some vast global conspiracy? Or leaded gasoline? Or any number of things that turned out to be more dangerous in hindsight?
Whether you feel this way or not, institutional trust is gone.
And as for what's real or what's not, you're probably decent within your areas of expertise. Once you get outside of that range, you probably don't know the difference between real and not for plenty of things. What the hell does your average person really know about things like 5g? It might as well be magic.
