I haven't been this shocked about anything on the internet in a long time. Apparently there are people on the internet who think that schizophrenia is awesome, rather than being a terrible mental disorder. Headmates are basically the imaginary friends of boring loser fucks who have no lives of their own. Rather than post a TL;DR version of what makes them so terrible, I'll let the InternetAristocrat do it for me.
That makes me so mad, seriously. They're all like "Oh yeah, I have DID but it's actually fun. All those things you think you know about people with multiple personality disorder? They're lies, spread to oppress us poor multiples. If someone comes out as a multiple to you, you have to feel honored and applaud them for their courage." In reality they just want as many oppressed personas as possible. "I'm a lesbian WOC but I'm also a Jewish trans man and a starving African child who was raped." These people have NEVER been hurt in their entire lives and they try to pass off their shitty fanfictions as reality. Some say their "headmates" raped each other and it was just as traumatizing as real rape.
They're not allowed to be proud of being white or straight and half of them aren't allowed to feel proud of being male. So this is simply a logical conclusion.
I would love to see these retards try to justify Herbert Mullin's schizophrenia. http://murderpedia.org/male.M/m/mullin-herbert.htm
They also think dissociative personality disorder is something that happens naturally, and not the result of brutal torture as a young child where the brain dissociates because it's too fucking painful and horrifying to comprehend it's happening to them. It's a defense mechanism gone overboard, and these twats treat it like it's a trendy thing to be. Fuck them. Same with schizophrenia. I know people with schizophrenia. It's terrible. And disgusting how people are pretending to have this disease in order to feel cute and special.
They're also teenagers so who gives a fuck what they think or say. Half the problem with tumblr is shitheads giving people unwarranted attention because they like to hear themselves talk.
knowing that there are so many people in the world like this really makes me worry about the future. One day there is a high chance one of them is going to be voted into office. Honestly if that happens I might just hide in the woods.
Not like DID isn't generally a matter that's up for debate in general. But yeah, as soon as all those "headmate" posts read like a bad RP chatlog, it's probably not DID.
I'm not worried at all. Anyone crazy enough to talk to the voices in their head usually tends to be so fucked up they can't pass themselves off as a NORP in public, so that's not even a concern. Besides, these assholes openly admit their crazy.
