I can see where you're coming from. :) But when it comes to that statistic, that's only the amount of people who are diagnosed with DID. Not a depiction of how many people have it. It's a lot more common than people think, 1.5% is a huge amount! People are able to express themselves easier online, especially in accepting spaces.

I think it does much more harm than good to fakeclaim people over their DID. Mainly because I've seen what fakeclaimers say and they will fakeclaim over the tiniest things. 😭 I just don't think theres a way to justify that kind of mindset. If there is concrete proof that someone is faking then that's different. I despise fakers with all my heart, but in reality theres definitely still something mentally wrong with them if they're faking. I think it does more harm to talk about the hypothetical fakers like this. Instead of talking about the hypothetical fakers, if you want to make things better for mentally disordered people then we should create safe spaces and educational posts. We could start by undemonizing the disorder for one, and advocating against people who fakeclaim over nonsensical things. Create a safe space for people who have it. As well as encouraging people who are mentally unwell to get the proper help they need.

I respect your opinion, but I think we'll have to just agree to disagree!
