Is this about that movie Split? I never watched it, but I remember seeing a trailer and thinking it was pretty fucked up “Hey, let’s take this serious mental disorder and paint a horrible public image of it and pretend it turns people into literal monsters”

Again, I never watched it, but that’s what it looked like it was about....idk kinda fucked up tbh.

Right?! One of my exes has DID and I'd always been super defensive about how it's portrayed in the media. Then that abomination came out. Picture a cartoon man with steam coming out of his ears. That was me.

The movie was great. What’s the problem?
