MUD - Medically Unrecognized Disorder
What exactly is it?
An MUD, or a Medically Unrecognized Disorder is a disorder not present within the DSM-V or the ICD-11. These are usually coined by users on Tumblr and each have their own names, descriptions, symptoms and representative flags.
What exactly is the problem about this?
The 'coining' of a disorder in purely medical context requires years of empirical research and can't be based off of personal experience. Lab tests, imagery, observing patterns in patients; alot goes into Disorder research.
These "Disorders" as I've seen are structureless, and such symptoms already exist in disorders listed in the DSM-V.
Before you tell me that the DSM-V isn't the bible, I know that, but is widely referred to for a reason. Have any of the MUD coiners done any any research and the same processing professionals have done to prove that their experience is a disorder? No, I'm not invalidating the fact that you experience it. I'm asking whether it's enough to make a whole new disorder.
Attachment issues are a normal human thing and stem from anxiety. Separation anxiety is a more specific term to use, not "Social Paranoid Explosive Disorder".
"Mental Health Obsessive Disorder" is basically the same as Munchausen Syndrome, where you make yourself ill deliberately or unintentionally in some cases.
What you all seem to be doing is cherry-picking symptoms from a plethora of already existing disorders and remixing them to create a new disorder.
The list goes on, and I can continue with the 'disorders' and their actual counterparts. This is unhealthy behaviour, and is a major part of the reason why professionals today don't take the younger generation seriously.
Please, do try to understand where my viewpoint stands and think rationally on this.
Respectful discussions are welcome, and I'm not here to harrass any of the coiners or namedrop. I genuinely am looking to discuss your viewpoint.

obviously i enjoy cute happy cathartic chainshipping stuff but personally. to me. one of the reasons its so compelling is that they are two deeply incompatible people, trying to cling to each other anyway.
Lawrence, with his need for control and order, who was devoted enough to his family he was willing to cut off his own foot to try and save them, and Adam, who seemingly has no real direction in life, who cut off his parents for an unknown reason and who, in the original script anyway, was shown to be passively suicidal. a surgeon who has friends that are lawyers, and a freelance photographer who has friends like fucking Scott Tibbs.
they cannot be more different from each other. they're like puzzle pieces that don't fit, but by god are they going to try and force them together anyway because if they don't they'll lose the only other person in the world who understands what happened to them in that bathroom. and they can't afford to lose that they need that. they need the reassurance that what happened to them was real and that they made the right decisions and that they're okay now.
they would be messy and they would argue all the time and they would piss each other off to no end but they would be so incredibly dependent on each other that they would put in the effort to be together anyway. do u get it do u see my vision

I think stan and wendy are equally bad for eachother but but style ain't healthy either
stan is rather shitty to kyle leaving him in the dirt for his own ambitions (gutair hero) / to look cool (metrosexuals) AND when kyle talks about how he felt emotionally betrayed by him/his friends they called him a pussy.
and kyle has in turn sent a hitman after Stan over voting/ betrayed stan (black friday trilogy stans depression creates a riff in their friendship
The problems stan/kyle have their codepency and simialritys to randy/sharon (Assburgers was a nodd to stan /kyle being sharon/randy )is . the lack of trust stan has with kyle/
All these problems is something the style fandom never talks about its not jock/nerd its two asshole dorks that were best friends who drifted apart its acutally kinda tragic esp in post covid pov
. i also think the idea that you cant enjoy a ship unless its healthy is ridiculous and theres too much competition to prove which ship is purer when all these kids are shitheads

Sometimes I just remember that oh right it's apparently a slightly controversial opinion that I think if Palpatine hadn't been involved at all that Anakin could've been perfectly happy and fulfilled with the Jedi.
Like just from rots we see Anakin want to follow Jedi ideals, to seek advice and even help from the very Jedi that fandom loves to act like he hates and who hate him in return, and we see the Jedi around him actually have a lot of respect for him! But every time he makes progress Palpatine is whispering in his ear and pulling out the stitches and re-opening the wounds, making it near impossible for him to actually grow as a Jedi and instead he grows closer to Falling. Not to mention the war, which was orchestrated in part to actively challenge the Jedi's morals and make them make bad and questionable choices.
Plenty of Legends canon and even current canon in things like the marvel comics show Anakin actively wrestling and considering Jedi philosophy, the pros and cons, and working through all his trauma and trying to figure out what's right for him and what the Jedi code actually means. People act like he only ever does lightsaber training and that he never picked up a book in his entire padawanship (which not only is just not how the Jedi Order works from what we see but honestly is just a boring take on the character imo).
Like, I just don't think that Anakin is actually incompatible with the Jedi Order! I think he could've thrived there if he wasn't being actively sabotaged and also had more time.

Endlessly tickled by the idea of Akira being a good shot but a shit gamer. I like to think its cause hes got incredible hand eye coordination and super steady ‘surgeon’ hands; hes very good with precise movements, but panics when he has to do brain melting inputs. His brain can keep up but its hard to make his hands follow suit. Its why u can have him be dogshit at arcade cabinets; panicking with the little joystick and button mashing like mad, while having him be a beast at things like darts and billiards.
The only arcade games he can play is house of the dead-esque shooting games (hes literally at the top of the leaderboards for MILES and he draws crowds whenever he plays) and DDR cabinets (hes just very light on his feet)(NOT to be confused with stepmania; he would die if he had to do arrow inputs with his HAND). Its kinda fun to watch him fumble with the other silly gimmick cabinets, but its more entertaining to watch him do what hes good at. If u take him to play darts, and if the darts are super cheap, he will absolutely try his best to split them down the middle each time. Doesnt always work, but its insane to know that he lands the bullseye literally 100% of the time.
