That upsets me too,and I have seen that happen alot too.Sometimes people just agree and encourage it though ,maybe because they are afraid to speak up or afraid they will upset someone if they tell them to seek professional help or tell them they could be wrong or it doesn't sound like DID at all.
I think what upsets me more than that though on those same forums/chats is when there are people that claim they have it but you can tell by what they post that they really don't even understand what DID is.That feels invalidating to me and I know I shouldn't let it bother me but it does.It's hard to not tell them they have no freaking clue.
Haha,we must have visited some of the same mental health forums.
