'atypical dysphoria around wanting more trauma or wanting trauma of a specific variety to fit in with those who are deemed more valid for the trauma they have' pretty directly implies that people who have the specific trauma that person wants are in fact treated better i.e. deemed more valid.
So you can't have atypical dysphoria based on a lie you tell yourself or that others tell you? Yes I probably could have worded it better but I clarified in other places in the post as well as in an answer what I would assume would be your ask. If you are going to nitpick how I worded something just stop. That is not worth either of our time.
All trauma survivors are invalidated. All trauma survivors feel invalid. Some use having what society would generally see as "worse trauma"(which isn't inherently in actuality) to say they are more valid than others. This just feeds into the validity Olympics as those with trauma try to push the discrimination they experience onto others to try to prop themselves up to feel more valid when they do not. This was something that was discussed in the original post.
Not all trauma victims do this, not all trauma victims of what society deems as "more severe" trauma do this but some do. Even some with what society would deem as "lesser trauma" do it as well. And the search for validity amongst a group where everyone feels invalid, everyone minimizes their own experiences, it just leads so many in the community to have atypical dysphoria as a trauma response to try to fit in in a way that will never actually be a solution or give them what they want. It doesn't mean they don't stop wanting it, it doesn't mean they will stop believing the lies the world and even other trauma survivors tell tell, it just means its normal and should be more accepted instead of continuing to feed into behaviors that encourage it.
