Petition to Address Ableist and Sanist Content at the ISSTD Conference and McLean Hospital

Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

The International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD) recently had a panel conference on “DID and social media,” featuring harmful and offensive content denouncing self-diagnosis and spreading the narrative that most systems online are faking it for the attention.
