For clarification on the āappropriationā and demedicalization of Dissociative disorders, itās appropriation because youāre claiming your experiences are the same, when theyāre not. For the demedicalization, itās because you
A) take medical terms for your non medical experiences and use them for yourself
B) spread hateful and violent ableist misinformation and propaganda that groom people into thinking that their trauma āwasnāt bad enoughā to cause a CDD which means they must be endo
C) cause psychiatric professionals to doubt the validity of real systemsā experiences, which further the hate and prejudice against people with CDDs
So yeah, youāre demedicalizing. And honestly, I wouldnāt be as anti endo as I am if yall had your own spaces, own terms, didnāt steal and invade our spaces/terms/tags, and didnāt claim to be āthe sameā. Oh and donāt get me started on the westernization and appropriation of tulpamancy.
