Fake Disorder Cringe Anonymous 05/27/22 (Fri) 01:06:54 AM No. 1198151

Recently on social media there has been an increasingly more common phenomenon of people who claim to have many different mental illnesses and disorders. These claims are, of course, dubious at best, and incredibly bonkers at worst. Post in this thread any kind of cringe shit you might find related to people who fake disorders for attention.

There should be a legal obligation to teach kids about internet safety and etiquette. I’m not thinking deeply about this at all but it sounds horrifying to be a child having unrestrained access to this, it becomes permanent and every small mistake they make or phase they go through is accessible forever. There should be classes about it in school the same way we had typing classes. I don’t really know if it would solve anything but I feel really bad for kids and teens because of this sort of thing.

When I was a kid and the internet started becoming normalised in people’s homes we were told never to post photos of ourselves or share any identifying information like our name, birthdate, location etc. I remember being shocked when some kids had (heavily edited beyond recognition) photos of themselves in their signature or profile on Gaiaonline, and asking a relative to please remove a picture of me from his personal website because having it publicly viewable made me uncomfortable. We still did and said dumb shit back then but it can’t so easily be traced back to us. Now 13-year-olds are posting geotagged selfies under their full legal names for the entire internet to see. IMO social media apps shouldn’t be allowed to encourage this or the ones that do should be 18+. Teenagers aren’t going to stop being stupid but the least we can do is stop enabling it.

We had a few classes like this in 2000 or 2001 when I just entered primary school, and then during "technology class" in middle school again fellow frenchfags will know. It was very useful because the internet wasn't widespread at all back then so we then all taught our parents internet etiquette and safety thanks to that. I don't think it's a thing anymore because it's seen as very basic common sense.

It’s become so commonplace for kids to share every possible thought they have and I don’t even mean this in the boomer “computer bad McDonalds iphone fluoride” meme, but the potential harm is often ignored. Young teens have vent igs, they post tiktoks, etc. There are plenty that do a great job at protecting themselves and advocating for protecting minors but there are also way too many that anchor their entire self worth to engagement and end up posting things that are astronomically embarrassing. Not to mention the constant stream of consciousness style of posting just feeds into the lack of attention span we all have. Idek what I’m trying to say at this point I just feel bad for teens, I don’t know how much worse it’s going to be as technology continues to advance and no laws or regulations will be put in place to protect the exploited.

Right, it's so disturbing. I admit I was a retard back then and shared pics of myself with close internet friends but they're probably floating in public somewhere. The fact they can just post their faces without a care and overshare their lives to the world is nuts. These kids are going to be fucked in a few years. Not to mention how you can easily search a face now and come up with every instance of it appearing online

I don’t even think that’s something they have to worry about, selfies are so commonplace and posting an embarrassing middle school picture is a lot more tame than the elaborate tiktoks and “DID system” pdfs that attract so much negative attention. What’s going to happen when they inevitably grow out of these phases that would be harmless if they weren’t thrown into a virtual vacuum and they want to become professional adults? I know it’s seen as “common sense” but I also don’t think it’s fair that we expect children and teens to actually exercise common sense like an adult. I think the addiction to validation can be just as consuming as any other.

More a rl situation but I remember when I was having a really bad phase with my mental health, I used to go drinking a lot with my friend and another group. A girl from this group said she was depressed, she had anorexia, all these illnesses. She said she would cut herself and showed me the tiny cat scratches. The thing she did that infuriated me the most was tell the group she felt heart palpatations and that she'd tried to kill herself the night before. I got super worried bc that had happened to me and was seriously debating calling an ambulance for her. Turns out she'd 'overdosed' on a whole total of THREE paracetamol. Bitch, that's what you take when you have a bad period.

This girl was 23, by the way. As far as i'm aware she hasn't grown out of it yet.

Well yeah. They are teenagers, that comes with the territory. I do think it's dangerous for kids to have unrestricted internet access and getting addicted to anything (e.g. sns, vidya, porn, etc) at an early age will absolutely stunt your development, but that doesn't change the simple facts of life. Kids are stupid and embarrassing in every generation. That's that.

Most teenagers have no sense of self and flit from different interests until they feel more secure and confident in themselves. Once they accrue some life experience and have a handle on their life and independence they grow out of it. It can be said that anyone who spends all of their time online making tiktoks has an exorbitant amount of free time and when they swap their internet addiction with hands on tasks or hobbies they’re going to improve and stop immersing themselves in personas.

I’m not sure if you’d call it fake, but I’m tired of everyone calling themselves autistic when it’s clear that at worst they have aspergers. I understand that now it’s all “autism spectrum disorder” but as someone who has worked with autistic children… there is a big difference between people with autism and people with aspergers. Like being able to come off as a normal functioning individual. If you are able to make tik tons where you seem pretty normal, I’m willing to bet you have aspergers. I’m sure some of them are just hopelessly ignorant about what severe autism is like and might be trying to spread awareness but I think most are just trying to co opt it to sound more sick or whatever.
I have aspergers, it sucked a lot growing up until I learned to be better at acting normal but it’s nothing compared to what kids with autism deal with and these teenagers need to stfu trying to use it for clout.

i noticed the fake disorder cringe subplebbit has a rule against misgendering. so basically people have to cater to one obviously fake attention seeking trait while making fun of the other and pretending there's zero correlation between the two when there clearly is. maybe they introduced that rule just so the sub wouldn't get banned though?

aspergers is literally not a diagnosis anymore though. autism is a spectrum and masking is what makes people "seem normal". i agree that a lot of people fake autism/adhd these days and a lot of people who are diagnosed probably are in the "lower needs" group but you really sound like a self hating autistic person. you sound like elon musk calling yourself "ass bergers" lmfao. if you're a female and semi conventionally attractive and can mask you probably "dont look autistic/aspergers" to anyone. like not all autistic children/people are drooling retards who can't make decisions for themselves and have an intellectual disability. you should probably accept your autism diagnosis sweetie.

Definitely, I think a lot of them also realized that it won't really help their social lives to pretend to have BPD because it's much more widely known about and mocked than it was back in the tumblr days. DID is really popular because having a fake DID account is just doing LARP and it also gives people (i.e. Pixielocks) easy outs for any less than stellar things done by that person, basically

My 'best friend' lied about having Tourettes the same time it was trending all over tiktok like a fucking plague. I knew this bitch my whole fucking life and she really thought she could lie to me? I said nothing because it was amusing and I wanted to see how long she thought she could keep it up for. I figured, that one day she'll come admit it to me, we'll have a laugh over it and move on. But she never did, in fact, I caught her telling more and more random lies over time. If you're going to lie, at least do it right bitch. I keep catching her out. I can't trust her anymore and it feels like everything coming out of her mouth is a goddamn lie. I don't even like talking to her much anymore because I just see her as a dirty, lying piece of slime. If she ever admits to her lies, I'll forgive her so quick. I do like her and we're childhood friends but my god, I can't take this anymore. Nowadays she's started to lie about autism. I think the real disorder she needs to get checked for is whichever one turns her into a pathological fucking liar.
