In the text, I look at the processes of psychiatrization as they unfold within social policies implemented in Poland. The presented ethnographic description focuses on the institution of adoption. I am telling the story of a young girl adopted as an infant. By creating an ethnographic commentary on the story, I raise the issues of epistemic inequalities, diagnostic cultures, biological reductionism and biopolitical bureaucracy. Methodologically, my analysis is based on in-depth interviews with the adoptive parents, the adopted girl and the people taking care of her at the youth educational centre, as well as numerous diagnostic documents developed by experts co-creating the system of social care in Poland
