[@Dynamo Frokane] I'll entertain you then, I guess. [quote=@Dynamo Frokane] I dont even take self diagnosis with a pinch of salt, I just straight up dont listen anymore.[/quote] k, not relevant to the topic at hand [quote=@Dynamo Frokane]Depression, Autism and Anxiety are real, common and to be taken seriously when accurately diagnosed.[/quote] yep [quote=@Dynamo Frokane]But sadly I do think there is a tendency for some younger RPers and a couple older ones to just slap a label on themselves because they dont nessecarily fit in with their extremely subjetive and narrowly percieved definition of what the 'mainstream' is.[/quote] I guess, but those aren't the ones I want to discuss [quote=@Dynamo Frokane]I mean can anyone really give me an exhustive defination of what a 'normie' is? Or how they think and live their lives?[/quote] I don't see how normies are the topic at hand [quote=@Dynamo Frokane]We are all different and we are all creative. But to varying degrees, some of us have more desrie to express our creativity some have more free time. [/quote] probably [quote=@Dynamo Frokane]Also just as final note, Mental illness gets thrown around too much, sometimes you just have personality disorder. The level of cringe when everyone at my college started calling themselves 'Sociopaths' when Sherlock and later Hannibal were popular was unbearable.[/quote] Again, not really relevant to the people I wanted to discuss Perhaps this will explain why I didn't really see the need to go into what you said any further because none of it relates to the actual thing I wanted to discuss, namely people on RPG with actual health issues (not attention seekers) and the relation between roleplaying and mental health issues.
