i probably have ocd, did some research, did some online tests and i was like yeah i probably do have ocd, but i gotta do some actual tests yk cant always trust the net

yeah mannn its so crazy how like looking up ur symptoms has just become common place lolol i wish it was that easy tho

I'm kinda regretting saying that. But it says what I have to the tee and it's a harmless skin condition that's visible so...

im not sure what ur referring to lol but im mostly referencing the weird spike in 2020 where everyone on tiktok was like "yeah i have [insert severe mental disorder] ive never spoken to a doctor about this but i googled my symptoms so i definitely have it"

its not as much of a problem anymore but MAN that was a weirddd time to be on social media!

Yeayea, I was talking about my first comment, that I just googled it because it's getting more feedback than I intended

Glad I wasn't on social media during that time lol


I am just a wee bit wacky if you didn't notice, kai

yeah.... it was such a weird culture shock lol, you had sooo many not-fandom people putting themselves in fandom spaces, and i think theres still a lot of communities affected by it

Yeah ! I got diagnosed in 2020

I never take anything off the Internet too seriously. Just because it says x, y and z doesn't mean you have/don't have a, b or c.

A lot of it can easily boil down to stress or pent up worry. Naturally if there's pain or legitimate concern etc talk to a professional but just be careful about what you find online, because you can then very easily fall into a lifestyle following something that you probably never had to begin with whether the Internet says so or not

Always look after yourself your own way. Do what's best for you

i actually really wanted to write a paper on the spike, back when it was relevant! its so interesting to me, like i wonder what the connection from covid to more time on social media to self diagnosing is- like obviously more people being on these online spaces means that its easier for things to trend, but DID/MPD is a mental disorder that's always been considered taboo in society (i think bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and DID are the big 3, but also Narcissistic personality disorder could count in that to)--- so like.... what made the sudden shift?! why did everyone want it???? i really should write a paper on this LOL

You should honestly, and yeah, DID, BD/BPD, and NPD are the biggest disorders that get hate, there's a lot of ableist posts about NPD on Pinterest. It's actually really annoying because most of the disorders that are frowned upon come from trauma. So people basically wanted to have childhood/adolescent trauma, which doesn't make sense and people who have it get mad

Yeah !! anything someone said they had ' DID ' but was self diagnosed made me sick to my stomach , I'm crying out loud even saying your ' self ' diagnosed with disorders is dumb , if you think you have go check it out don't say you have it with out proof , I'm diagnosed doctor with DID , HPD and ADHD
