[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is DID going to be the new “trend” according to DCUM trolls? I expect to see at least 14 troll posts this summer claiming that all the teens are identifying as having DID. [/quote] I see a lot of people spewing BS about how the majority of teens and tweens who are now identifying as something other than hetero and cis are just doing it because it’s a trend. That’s obnoxious. But DID is an actual disorder, not an identity, is incredibly rare, and it takes years to identify and diagnose. Plus people have been using the term “dissociate” to mean “distract yourself” or “forget what you’re doing” so even if these people do legitimately think they have DID, they probably don’t because they don’t know what it actually is. I think that the key to all this isn’t dismissing these people out of hand, but education about gender, sexual orientation, and the various psychiatric disorders that are most commonly popping up on social media.
