[@BrokenPromise] no, the question at hand isn't about people with labels, because I'm talking about hypothetical people with mental disorders or illnesses that are genuine. It's not about the people we see, it's about the people that genuinely have an illness. Whether they exist or not isn't really the question - unless you're trying to answer whether or not they frequent this place, in which case your argument might be that they do not but some pretend that they have illnesses or disorders. Which I would agree with, in most cases. But for the second question, whether roleplay could be seen as harmful, I am talking about those with legitimate illnesses or disorders. Those I have spoken with from RPG are all diagnosed, and often are all well over the age of 18. Actually most of them are. So, that's not the issue here. Didn't I say that I agreed with the fact that there are a lot of diagnoses that do not hold up true? I'm very critical of people with mental illness [i]especially[/i] here. But in my friend group on RPG, struggle with mental health is very prevalent. Perhaps that is due to the type of people I prefer to hang out with, but well, that's how it is. Also, I do not visit other forums, because they're a breeding spot for idiocy in most cases and RPG isn't really excluded. Mind you I probably partake in that, but that is besides the point. So I have no idea what other forums are like (and, well, that's also why I didn't mention any.) It also seemed you misunderstood. I [i]was[/i] talking about ADHD, ADD, and whatever else. But I was talking about them in the sense of those people that have actual ADHD, ADD, etc. Not those that get diagnosed with it. The diagnosis and the actual mental presence of these things are two separate things to me [i]due to the miss-diagnosis or over-diagnosis.[/i]
