typed a long ass post and deleted it but it basically was saying tumblr is weird bc we kinda treat our disorders like horoscopes and act like they determine things about our personalities.
like sure, they influence parts, but its weird that we create in groups and fomo for disorders like that. but its also kinda just human to do that and i dont blame anyone for looking for solidarity.
i just think posts on here can be harmful when u go down a list of, for example, adhd traits and mark off the ones u have and then feel like an imposter when u dont have every single one. this is all unbeknownst to the op who, quite frankly, could be wrong abt what disorder they have or could just be making shit up. not saying they are, but you dont know this person and you dont know if theyre trustworthy, and then youre using their list to decide if you have enough adhd points to be in the club.
#saturns#idk this is an experience i have frequently when looking at posts about disorders on tungler.hell#its something that used to bring me a little comfort bc i hadnt figured out why i felt so wrong all the time but now it just stresses me out#makes me feel like an imposter or like i tricked my psychologist into diagnosing me when i was younger#but i think its like... not a healthy thing to compare urself to those kinds of posts which invite u to compare urself#bc obviously u are not op and u are not their friends who contributed and whatever you are yoj#your disorder is its own thing different from anyone elses bc its based on your chemistry and life experiences#maybe u learned to cope earlier than you thought. magbe u never learned to cope. either way you are still you#and like..... idk dont boil urself down to ur labels please? maybe im just a little anti labeling#esp considering i just identify as queer now and dont even rlly like calling myself nonbinary (even though i am and recognize that i am)
