Re: Is having a mental disorder or no life a requirement for fandom, now?

Yeah, I would consider that pretty intrusive. It's kind of rude to ask people "what they have" - maybe they don't feel comfortable telling people, and maybe they don't "have" anything and it's actually kind of rude to make assumptions like that.

If I was you, I'd probably avoid talking to her from now on - that kind of behavior is intrusive and rude.

I have noticed that, on tumblr at least, people tend to list off big long descriptions of labels, with mental illnesses among them. IDK if this is a recent trend, or if people with mental illnesses tend to gravitate more towards fandom.

Sometimes I feel like it's almost a badge of honour, like the more things you have "wrong" with you, the more authority you have, or something. IDK.

Def agree with the "badge of honour" thing. Why do you think that is?

I can kind of understand it but I staunchly disapprove. I have depression and it's not a "badge of honor" it's just a thing that I have to deal with. Maybe it gives me some more insight into certain situations (like...people having depression) but I mean. if I start to think of it as a badge then I feel like I'm playing like a woebegone Bad Shit Life Story olypmics and it's weird
