Even though Mike is my favorite TD character, I still don’t like how the show and parts of the fandom treat his MPD sometimes.

*Don’t romanticize his MPD. It’s an actual mental condition that is crippling to those who have to live with it. ((I had the same problem with how the show handled Trent’s OCD in TDA)) Which brings me to my next point…

*For the love of God I could write a book on how they made it so Zoey was the reason he was able to fight his personalities and if you get a love then you can overcome your disorder like that! ….fuck that.

*The correct term is “alter” for his personalities. Not “emo Mike”, not “gymnast Mike”. Either use alter or call them by their canon name.

*I have literally heard people from the fandom be like “That’s so cool that he has multiple personalities :D”. What the fuck. No. NO. It’s one thing to enjoy the characters of his alters and to fangasm over them, but don’t mistake that with “omg he has MPD how adorable <3”.
