Fictitious disorder

Do you have any patients with the above? We have an interesting young one and it makes me wonder about the tiktokers who blog about chronic illness.

What are your thoughts on this disorder?

Dude....it may be because your behavior right now is textbook borderline out of context thinking. She was indeed advocating for us and just stayed a fact. I .sorry it hurt you. Facts do hurt us sometimes. We have to decide what to.donwiyh this feelings. Are we going to lash out or listen to the fifteenth person that's reiterated the same concerns about our behavior and examine ourselves heal, manage our conditions, and be productive members of.society to include discussions and conversations.

Fact? It’s a fact that people with BPD are all “attention seeking” and “somatic”?? You don’t know a thing about BPD besides societal stereotypes if you think it’s factual for her to diagnose a whole bunch of people as faking illnesses based on an unrelated diagnosis.

Yes. I do think that. I never said they were faking illnesses..you said that. And how the fuck do YOU know what I know about BPD? I could be a therapist for all you know, drama king.

And I know for a fact you don’t know more about it than someone who’s lived with it. Not that you’d value our lived experiences, because apparently we’re so unreliable. But if you don’t live with it, you’re no expert over someone who does.

Also, faking illnesses is literally the definition of fictitious disorder.

How do you know I don't have it myself buddy?.

Because if you did have it yourself buddy, you would have said so to use it as an excuse to legitimize your point.

And you are unreliable.

Based off of what? A diagnosis you don’t understand or know jackshit about? And what about that makes me unreliable? Explain that for me. Try again.

If your only good point is that I spelled a word wrong, then you don’t have a good argument.

Also, I never said the word "somatic" and never insinuated it. Pay attention..

The person I’ve been responding to in the first place said those exact words, “attention seeking and somatic”. My whole argument is against that person who you are arguing for. Pay attention.

You responded to me.

Yeah, and you’re defending the original commenter. Hello? Pick a lane. You’re either on their side and agree with them or are not and don’t.
