Re: Non-entertainment fandoms

being highly controversial to the point where many psychiatrists dispute the idea that it even truly exists

That's actually more of a 90s thing. Far as I can tell, it has mostly passed, in part because the False Memory Syndrome Foundation (who is responsible for most of the 'does multi really exist?' stuff) has been thoroughly debunked and isn't so huge as they once were.

I mean, I still ENCOUNTER people who don't believe it exists, but not so much actual mental health workers these days.

Wow, really? Not my field, and I just recently read a "debunking" that was really dismissive. I thought DID was probably on the way out.

I'd be really interested in seeing that debunking, if you remember the authors! Like I said, I like to keep on the up and up on these things. Was it The Persistence of Folly? That's the most recent I've read, and it's a good ten years old. I'd be interested to see if there's a new argument, besides, "all multi is iatrogenic," "all multiples are faking," and, "well, everyone knows there can only be one self in a body, that is a scientifically proven objective fact ergo multi is impossible!"

Note that my experience is limited to the practitioners and hospitals I myself have been involved with, but while I ran into many people who were kind of intimidated by multi, they weren't actively disbelieving. They usually were at least somewhat open to me doing some education or 101. I mean, I'm sure the disbelievers exist, but DID isn't the fad diagnosis it was back in the 90s, and so people are cooling down a bit.

Besides, I've been seeing shit claiming multis will die out any day now for the past fifteen years, and reading articles declaring the exact same thing that have existed for thirty. I myself rather doubt it.

ayrt

It was probably one of the pieces that came out in 2011 when Debbie Nathan's Sybil Exposed was published.

Ahhhh, of course, that makes sense.

I really should read that damn book, even though I hear it'll make me spitting mad. *sigh* I admit, I find it skeezy and creepy as hell, the whole, "shrinks write a huge moneymaking book about their multi client" thing, but I hear the book does not treat Dorset with much respect.
