    No, I never saw that sub when I was over there, but I’d wager my comment would apply equally well to anything posted there. These kids today with their words for problems we ignored.

    ARFID is a very real phenomenon that is staggeringly common, and yet we have very little information on the causes or fixes for it. Treating it like the kid is just being “picky” leads to food avoidance, binge eating, obesity, and eating disorders. “Just stop being picky” didn’t work, and was a criminal neglect of duty of care among parents and doctors.

      Look - I’ve been diagnosed with BPD but the people on that sub claim to have DID and be a “system” with over 1000 personalities. Those personalities, funnily enough, are anime characters fro the latest animes they watched.

      You really think they’re real?
