Or "to defend yourself with lies". (ex: "You can't insult me! I have self-diagnosed autism!")

I lost a friend/roommate once because she was drunk coming home and couldn’t get the front door unlocked. I was asleep in my bedroom but she accused me of holding the door closed on her so she couldn’t get in (??? 😂). When I told her that’s not what happened, she accused me of gaslighting her. A couple of my other friends told me I shouldn’t have gaslit her. I was so mad, THAT’S NOT WHAT GASLIGHTING MEANS 😂 I’m not friends with any of them any more because they consider me a toxic gaslighter. I consider them toxic people who cling to pop psychology labels to victimize themselves for attention. I dodged the bullet, not them 😂

I agree, but I'd add, using actual diagnosis that you didn't actually have to exaggerate your problem and make you feel "better" about yourself. All of the ones listed are an actual problem, but people saying that they're "triggered" by something is my biggest pet peeve.

Making up issues to feel special, or in an attempt to justify poor behavior.

Or to insult or falsely accuse others of being abusive.

A.K.A Tik Tok

(Not so) fun fact: American law enforcement agencies have been known to use "leading questions" to gaslight people being interviewed/interrogated

Yes, and it can be just as harmful and have just as negative impact on an individuals life as any misdiagnosis could have in any medical field. It's use ranges from the annoying to the darn right dangerous, and the need to get that sort of information out about its destructive potential has never been greater, in my opinion.

Perhaps even a real narcissistic trait in some cases.

Your translation is unhelpful. People try to understand themselves and sometimes that's hard. Pop culture is an attempt to simplify complicated concepts so people can better cope with the hard things in life.

No one “feels special” by being unintentionally misdiagnosed. Grow up.

It can also give you language to express experience you would otherwise not understand or have a way to talk about. It has its place

It should be taught in health class in high school.

nope, its not..maybe ist was, but nowadays its equality they are aiming at, but miserably fail, because there is a paid option to get better service. For example universal healthcare does not pay for your teeth or for you glasses, private does, costs more than al lot of people are able to pay, especially if you work minimum wage. A two class health system isnt even equality, but is still better than no universal healthcare at all.

Australian universal health system is similar - if you earn under a certain amount you don't pay anything at all - most tax payers pay 2% - if you're on a high wage you need to have private hospital insurance, if not you pay an extra 1.5% - everyone gets the health care they need.

it's 16,75% now

Costa Rica implemented that universal health system since the 1940's

Yes, everybody pays the same for basic cover, but depending on your income, you can receive extra money to cover for a part of the costs. In some areas (at least Dordrecht) the local municipality pays the costs for additional insurance for poor elderly people.

Unfortunately true...

Similar here. I wonder where they got their data from. Most of these are NOT typically known in Germany. Lorelei, sure, and Rübezahl and a few others maybe depending on the person. The rest? Never heard of them personally.

exactly! I can't take it serious without a picture of it in there!

I know! I immediately thought of them too. Don’t they only reach sexual maturity once they’re like, 100?

Upvoted for dudes and duderinas!

Nah, if anything a jellyfish is the only one that deserves immorality cause they can't do anything

Excellent use of the word duderinas!

Interesting, thanks.

There isn't a definitive answer on them, see dull article https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/greenland-shark.html

"Duderinas" - so cool.

I reacted to that omission, too.

hard life for the queen! The once hatched in autumn are the once that will keep the hive warm during the winter. Thus living longer.

The origins of serifs are calligraphic, an artifact of brush strokes and later nib-style pens. We find them in carved Greek and Roman stone inscriptions because those inscriptions were painted first, then carved. Sans-serif scripts were considered "grotesque" until the 19th Century.

That's the font you'll find on the Trajan Column, which is considered the exemplar for the ductus
