[chronicsymptomsyndrome]

Can we please for the love of god stop telling teenagers they’re too young to have aches and pains. Can we please stop being dismissive about these things. Fakeclaiming is disgusting period, but it is exponentially harmful to youth. Just because you didn’t start hurting until your 20s or 30s or 40s doesn’t mean every teenager complaining of chronic pain must be lying. I learned the hard way that if kids are invalidated enough about this, they will just learn to accept constant pain as a fact of life. And then they will need surgery they can’t afford in ten years bc it turns out constant pain is NOT a fact of life. At any age.

p.s. same goes for mental health

I honestly can't think of where some of y'all are getting this idea from, that people faking being disabled is a huge problem. In my close to 37 years of life now I've yet to run into a single case of an actual person faking a disability.

I can come up with at least a dozen reasons off the top of my head at any given moment for why disabled people are so often not believed, and disability fakers ain't one of them.

Things you’re not:

1. Qualified to decide whether or not someone is faking a disability.

Things you don’t have:

1. The right to interrogate or harass someone because they don’t look disabled to you

Friendly reminder that before diagnosis my disability, neurodivergence, or my mental illness were just as real as after diagnosis.

No diagnosis ≠ faking

You have to have the symptoms and show the signs to even be diagnosed in the first place!

Come and fakeclaim me bitches. I have lived with this disorder for over 35 years and have been PROFESSIONALLY diagnosed three times. Go ahead and fake claim me, it literally does not matter. Even the government accepts that I have D.I.D, fat chance your chronically internet ridden ass can say anything that would convince me I don't.

Try harder you fuckwits.

Destigmatize Munchausen syndrome

This take may be too nuanced for the Internet right now, and that's okay but.. Instead of calling out people who seem to fake any type of illness, instead of complaining about how annoying they are, and ALSO instead of pretending that these people don't exist- what if we just destigmatized Munchausen syndrome??

It seems like everyone is all for mental health until it comes to Munchausen syndrome. And, extra nuance here, we should destigmatize this debilitating mental illness, while still allowing space for chronically ill, disabled people, and those hurt by people with Munchausen syndrome to speak their truth about it.

At the end of the day, those with Munchausen syndrome deserve help as much as anyone with depression does and if they could feel less shame about it they could get help sooner and create less harm to themselves and others.

(I am only talking about Munchausen inflicted on self because destigmatizing M by proxy is a very different type of issue)

#happy to elaborate on this #putting this in the cripple punk tag because i feel its relevant to disability what with fakeclaiming #and people with MD would be able to access help much easier with less shame #munchausen syndrome #factitious disorder #cripple punk #neuropunk #madpunk #fake claiming #chronic illness #disability

We once saw someone on a tiktok common section claim that "14 year old systems claiming to have like 400+ alters are always fake".. as if there's like an age limit for how many alter you can have? What— "oh, sorry, you're just 14, you should only have 40 alters!" Huh!?

The recent fake-claimer that harassed the NPD culture blog reminded me of a major hypocrisy I've noticed from r/fakedisordercringe and related shitheads:

FDC: If you are talking about your mental illness online, it's obviously for attention and to make yourself seem special. You do have a disorder but not the one you think. You clearly have NPD.

Also FDC: You say you have NPD? Well I'm going to throw the same accusation I always do when fake-claiming, but this time it's proof you don't have NPD rather than proof you have it.

By the way, I don't think we should be focusing on accusing people with DID of faking. This is already a disorder where a lot of doubt and denial is present. It's easy to fake-claim someone you do not know based on what they're showing you about themself online. If you think you can tell fake DID from real DID, you need to reevaluate how you think about "real DID".

Of course there are people out there who fake the disorder but even mental health professionals are not as quick to point their fingers as who they think is faking what. It takes time and a lot of therapy to understand not just that someone is faking but also why. That's more helpful than just calling someone fake and hating them for it since in that case, the mental health professional can actually help the cilent work through whatever is causing them to fake.

I just wanted to say this because of my last reblog. I understand systems and people hatred towards those who fake being a system. I hate what they are are doing but I do not personally hate those people. Why? The better answer would be because those people are misguided but to be honest, I can't get people to stop the bad things the are doing if they haven't even realized the full shittiness of their actions so I might as well not spend my time being bothered by them y'know?

Fairly sure already mentioned that FakeClaiming is about not allowing disabled and neurodivergent people to be weird, but FakeClaiming is about not letting disabled people be weird.

Look at the favorite targets of fakeclaimers: crazy colorful hair, crazy colorful clothes, crazy colorful make up (usually femme presenting); in short people who look weird. As far as I can tell, the rational is that if you're weird you just a weirdo who wants attention and "real" disabled and neurodivergent people are "normal", never mind that neurodivergent people are more likely to be attracted to fashion and interests that differ from the norm (or that traits that are considered "weird" are usually signs of neurodivergence)

Nobody is “too young” to be cynical or jaded or hate their life. There is no appropriate age for that. If someone is experiencing that at any age, their mental health is at risk. Doesn’t matter how young they are, or how easy their life seems. Just because existential dread didn’t hit you until later in life, doesn’t mean everyone else gets to be so lucky.

“You think life sucks now? Just wait until you’re grown” okay grandpa what if they don’t make it to adulthood? What if it gets worse until they only see one way out and they take it? Stop being dismissive. Stop forcing your problems onto young people and start taking them seriously about things. Period.

i really do hope you know that you get made fun of very frequently and its 100% deserved seeing as how youre enabling young did fakers and autism fakers with these shitty emojis. youve turned my innocent young sister into an autism faker with them spamming these emojis everywhere and constantly using them to convey "stimming."

It’s honestly hilarious how bad you hate me lol like yes bestie be more obsessed w me I love it

Anyways. There’s so much to unpack here. The way you make it seem like I fucking infected your sister with The Tism Jesus you sound like an autism $peaks ad.

I didn’t give your sister autism. All I did was give her a way to express herself, and to me that is an absolute W

I hope your sister continues to love my emojis and sees this anon and laughs to herself at how ridiculous you’re being.

I hate the r/fakedisordercringe with a boiling passion. On top of it being such a toxic place, who the heck focuses their entire day on finding and tearing down people who might just maybe faking? The amount of people with Tourette’s I see in that subreddit(like Baylen Dupree) who are NOT faking it drives me insane. Or someone who was simply sharing a few of THEIR autistic traits suddenly getting fakeclaimed because ‘that’s not how autism works.’ It’s disgusting, harmful, and just sad honestly.  

Who do these people think they are, telling another person that their disability is fake because their narrow perspective of it doesn’t match up? 

#while some of the things there do seem obviously harmful and fake the entire subreddit doesn't seem to realize they're being just as bad? #tourettes #fake claiming #fakedisordercringe #autism #neurodivergent

I used to be very afraid to be “out” as a system. Terrified, really. Now, it’s not that I don’t care— I care a lot about being all of my authentic self and letting all of me be seen and heard. But because I care so much about being authentically me, I now don’t care about what used to scare me about being out as a system.

I was scared of being fake claimed (or accused of faking my DID) because I hadn’t fully accepted my DID yet. I would let myself be swayed by what others said I was because I didn’t know who I was. I used to believe that others (even total strangers!) knew me better than I knew me. Which is ludicrous.

Now, everything is different. I know who I am. I know that I’m part of a DID system. I know that I have a good heart and that my intentions are pure. I know that I’m human and that I am allowed to make mistakes because perfection is unattainable. And I know that that’s all okay!

Now, if someone fake claims me, I’ll see it as a reflection of them, not a reflection of me. Because that’s all it is. I have control of me. I have no control over what anyone else may think of me. And I won’t try to change peoples minds about me. What someone thinks of me is genuinely none of my business.

I am who I am and it’s really that simple.

I feel like a lot of people see someone with a debilitating *anything* and get personally offended that they're in the public light and trying to make the best out of it.

You see the same people who get pissed over people decorating their mobility devices. Or people who post videos about their vocal ticks. People who are open about schizophrenia or DID. I've even seen the same hatred and faking accusations towards the deaf and blind.

If you have any atypical condition at all, ESPECIALLY if you're under 40, people apparently think you either hole yourself up, Phantom of the Fucking Opera style, or that you're doing it for attention.

Those are the two options.

Shame I've never fit cleanly into a binary~
