There's so much wrong information there, and so much that would be cause someone who is interacting with a real person with DID to handle things wrongly. It's very disturbing to me. <br /><br />I had kind of avoided the show, but now I feel like I've failed in some fundamentally moral way in not being vocal about how wrong it is. I should have been actively campaigning against it.Stephhttp://www.commonplacebook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-75465352455077902752010-04-10T06:56:13.238-07:002010-04-10T06:56:13.238-07:00'Bout time, Snarker. :p

I watched the show early in the very beginning but as a mental health profession, I grew concerned about the portrayal of dissociative disorder.<br /><br />That said...wow to this clip.Vikkihttp://uppoppedafox.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-25144948232317803392010-04-09T05:08:49.053-07:002010-04-09T05:08:49.053-07:00Two words...

Every portrayal I've seen on TV and the movies, especially Sybil and "Three faces of eve" were wrong, and in ways that do a great disservice to people struggling with this illness. Using a serious illness that is highly misunderstood and very difficult to recover from for a sensationalist drama sucks.<br /><br />From all the previews and all the reviews I've seen about Tara, it uses the same awful tropes about DID. And despite the fact that I loved Juno, Diablo Cody seems like a fame-chaser and pop-culture crass princess willing to dash off something crappy that harms people with a mental illness to get some cash. So I can't do this show.Stephnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-70808633468079249482010-04-09T02:54:44.062-07:002010-04-09T02:54:44.062-07:00Toni Collette is so underrated.
