Lets be honest. All perversion is more or less mental illness. Posing as what you are not deceptively or not is perverse.
And the more you indulge in it the more mentally ill you become.

And the more you argue the point the more the proof.

Not a mental condition per se, it’s a symptom of an underlying mental disorder.

@Adogslife well I think you’ve got the right answer

@Madmonk What?
Narcissistic personality disorder ( though they will fake other diagnoses for attention they have no real ones usually )
They need as many avenues as possible for new supply.

@AnnabelleLeigh is that rare? I know Bipolar and BPD/EUPD people- but not NPD so much… Maunchausens is another one, where people fake medical conditions for attention-sympathy. Maunchausens By Proxy is when they make other folks ill. But recently I have heard of a “new” one; Maunchausens By Internet; might fit catfish?

Hard to say if mentally ill or just want attention no matter the reason. some of the posts on here to me have been popcorn munching worthy.

On here we have paid professional trolls like that. Probably from Share Blue, Hope not Hate or similar 1% funded groups.
Well, they're certainly bored.. Probably have absolutely nothing else to do

I wonder do they chat with each other

@angie8819 There is at least one person I have seen here who chats with his female alt as if they are different people. Commenting on each others posts.

@Harmonium1923 that is weird - there’s a bunch of catfish on here; but we sort of expect it as a general thing; some aren’t catfish and are up front-role playing and not causing harm. I have seen posts a few times where a user admitted to doing it off-site on social on “a few” fakes = (probably minimilisation to make the behaviour seem less terrible)

People really do that?
SociallyAnxious · 36-40, M
@Katie01 yeah - some big email providers let you create an account in minutes, idk if dating sites and social media sites nuke them if they join - but there’s probably a way around it for catfish
Happy spooky 🐱🐠 season🎃👻
