what's weird to me is all the cutesy shit like 'making all the alters in the sims' and making fanart of them.

like you'd think they would make more videos about how hard it is and not like... make it look so fun honestly? like that's odd to make videos where your disorder looks like fun. there's no other disorder where people on youtube make videos where it looks fun. like people who have schizophrenia or bipolar or depression sometimes make youtube videos of how scary and hard it is for them but they never make videos where it seems like fun.

and one of the key components of it is supposed to be amnesia but none of these youtubers seem to have that aspect of it.

I think its less abt making fun videos and more about not making it seem so "dangerous" for others, like the misconseption is because of movies like split etc, not taking away the serious aspect of it but making it easier to talk about and less stigmatized. Yall do really not know anything abt did if u believe shes faking btw lol seriously disgusting

idk man all comes down to your point of view. i think i know enough about did through my own experiences and she really looks like a blatant faker to me. i think ''real'' did would be seriously debilitating and not some fun cute quirk. like the whole changing makeup thing especially stands out to me. I dissociate every day and have been for 15 so let me tell you that's not how it works lmao.
