If you are so well versed in personality disorders, you'd already know that there is no such thing as a dissociative personality disorder. Did you mean personality disorders with dissociation as a symptom? Because yes, that exists, but
no dissociative personality disorder. DID is not a personality disorder nor is it actually the label for multiple personalities though some older and outdated papers may refer to it as such. The term alter refers to alternate states of personality, but all alters are parts of one personality. These parts have developed as the result of severe identity dissonance from long term, severe dissociation. That is also why they can be reintegrated back into one full personality.
I highly suspect that you are a narcissist, and I'll go through the criteria for NPD with you to show you why I think so scientifically. Your posts have been mostly around asserting your inflated ego of self importance and mightier than though (
Criteria 1: Grandiose sense of self importance). You waxed poetic about your education and how you as an 'academic' were placed above us, showing a sense of 'specialness' (
Criteria 3: Belief one is 'special'). However, at the slightest graze against your fragile ego, you've flown into a rage. You've told us to kill ourselves, to get shot up, wished ill on our families. Did you think to how that would make us feel? No, because you don't see how that would make us feel (
Criteria 7: Lack of empathy). Furthermore, your rage is evidence of your expectation of praise (
Criteria 4: Requires admiration), that we should automatically see you as worthy and righteous (
Criteria 5: Entitlement). You then proceeded to talk about going back to your beautiful anime body pillow- sorry, I mean wife, again talking about how much better you are than all of us. It's arrogant of you to assume some of us aren't successful, well educated, have beautiful spouses or whatever just because we use this forum (
Criteria 9: Arrogance).
Next, you show impairments in personality function. The first one is self functioning criteria A: identity. It's defined as
"Excessive reference to others for self-definition and self-esteem regulation, exaggerated self-appraisal may be inflated or deflated, or vacillate between extremes, emotional regulation mirrors fluctuations in self-esteem". You came here for validation of yourself as an academic. You went from calm, mature to calling us 'nincompoops' and more when we did not give you that self esteem boost. In fact, we probably damaged it a little bit.
The second impairment is interpersonal functioning criteria A: Empathy. It's definition is
"Impaired ability to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others; excessively attuned to reactions of others, but only if perceived as relevant to self; over- or underestimate of own effect on others". Again, as I pointed out, your inability to see how we'd feel following your extreme wishes of violence. You only expressed empathy towards those we're calling out because you wanted to prove your idea that we're a bunch of assholes. If you really thought this thread was so damaging, why would you even comment in the first place and add to it?
The next is pathological personality trait antagonism. Antagonism includes two parts, grandiosity and attention seeking, both of which I've already highlighted in your behaviors.
Obviously, I can't diagnose you with NPD, mostly because I'm not actually qualified to do so (yet). Furthermore, I have not met you in person, don't know about your socio-cultural situation, and also don't know if you're on drugs, or suffer from another medical disorder that could otherwise explain your behavior. Those are all criteria that have to be sorted out for a proper diagnosis. I also don't know if this behavior is consistent across situations, but it has been consistent here and I'm sure if I wanted to I could look at your reddit. I just don't want to actually waste my time on it, lol.
Also this is more just to write how you want us to. If it's annoying, good!
