Also have had depressions since she’s 8 (born in 2000, claims it started in 2008) and deadass seriously thinks that “drinking a glass of water and getting sun” will help instead of meds?
That is exactly my point. We are talking about fricking depression here. From what I kow, people with the severe depression she claims to know about cannot even get up in the morning. They live in the dark and can sometimes stay in bed for days without eating or showering. Nothing of what she says makes sense.

Wow.
I’m gay af, but she’s gorgeous. Too bad she is a mental illness faker.
13
exactly my thoughts except im lesbian. honestly it sucks because she could have made it out as a model or something else to get equally as famous. it's bad luck she chose to go down the wrong path :/
13
IKR??!? She litterally IS a model she's done photoshoots and stuff! With her looks she doesn't even need any sort of talent to become famous and it makes me even more angry at her for faking tbh.

Jesus. I only made it like 3 minutes in wtf. Not the rapid switching, frozen state of dissociation, and saying “I’m not the original alter” wtf
10
Clearly she just imitates what she sees on TikTok and the DissociaDID channel, everything she does is sooo cliché to me

Nobody would care if she wasn't pretty

Just once I’d love someone to interview these folks who actually knows something about the history of the diagnosis/DID so they can bring up the sociocognitive model.

Well no one really talks about it because it’s been mostly disproven, or maybe a better way of saying it is that most people, including researchers and psychologists, don’t believe in it. Here’s a couple resources that may help. I tried to make sure they were understandable in language get scholarly (although the second one isn’t technically scholarly I thought it was really thorough and seemed like a good source). Let me know if I can help more. I’m not saying that the sociocognitive model is completely wrong, but no one talks about it because A.) most people don’t believe in it and B.) it can feel invalidating to people with the disorder (not saying that it is, it just feels that way) and it’s scary to consider the idea that you were accidentally manipulated into thinking you have a disorder. It could make you feel naive or stupid or all sorts of things.
Edit: That being said, fakers don’t talk about it cause they don’t know Jack shit about anything about the disorder or psychology or history unless it was the first thing that popped up on Google or something other fakers say

All the psychology colleagues that I have do think that DID is exposure induced.

You replied to u/Curious_incident_02 after only a couple of minutes, and they shared two sources that are quite good (not sure if they were edited in after the fact, but it looks like their post was edited quickly enough that there isn't an "edited" note). I don't think that's fair, and anyone can use anecdotal evidence such as saying they have psych colleagues that agree with their POV.
9
Yeah can confirm I only edited it to put that last couple sentences in
5
I replied so quickly because I was already familiar with those sources
I’ve read them before.

I could be misinformed, I only have experience with my professors and the psychologists I’ve seen really, could you point me to some sources that support this?

“The current consensus seems to favour the trauma model, but incorporates some elements of the sociocognitive model. Namely, it is now widely accepted that childhood trauma causes DID.
Still, the importance of suggestibility is recognized, so it is also widely accepted that dissociation that had been caused by overwhelming early developmental experiences can be structured and shaped by a variety of psychological, social and cultural factors, including psychotherapy.”
Meaning basically that while dissociative disorders can be childhood trauma related: perhaps because of the trauma individuals are more susceptible to having their mental stability and condition influenced by culture or therapy.

at 3:47 (time stamp) the lady with the faker said she had alters when the faker was six and seven, That's the age when DID is formed. Clear faking

Reminder for everyone to read the rules and provide evidence that the disorder might be fake. Avoid posting people who have actual disorders, as it would be harmful.
#PLEASE PUT THE EVIDENCE THAT THIS IS FAKED AS A REPLY TO THIS COMMENT. Thanks <3

⁃ Will to show off her health issues + accumulate them, which does not seem very sane (accident, heart problems... ). Very clear will of victimizing herself.
⁃ Claims she has : DID, ADHD, BPD, anxiety, C-PTSD, High Intellectual Potential, High Emotional Potential, EDs, chronic depression, amnesia, impostor syndrome, insomnia, Wolf Parkinson White syndrome, lordosis, hereditary angioneurotic oedema, scoliosis. Seems like a lot huh ?
⁃ Before covid, she worked as a barmaid in a nightclub. This is not exactly the kind of job you can have if you’re mentally unstable, especially with such a heavy diagnosis.
⁃ Her roomate also claims to have DID & makes Tiktoks as well. They started making videos around the same time.
⁃ She has a patreon where you can charge up to 100€/month for exclusive content, such as « receiving a card from one of Olympe’s alters ». Using your mental illness to earn money? Yas queen.
⁃ Her accounts are managed by a communication agency.
⁃ A lot of people accuses her of inventing all of this to make money (multiple calls for donations, which money was used for trips and clothes...) not a proof in itself either but it seems I’m not the only one thinking that all of this financial aspect is a red flag. Somebody even created a page on a scam alert website to inform people about her.
⁃ Justifies all the money incomes by « because of DID I cannot work, so that money is essential for me to live. » The fact is that in France, with such a diagnosis, you can get an allocation (AAH) made specifically for adults that cannot work because of a handicap. To me that means she doesn’t really have a diagnosis.
⁃ Never talks about the medication she takes, even tho it seems impossible to me to have such a normal looking life and behaviour without taking anything with such a heavy diagnosis. Says she developped an addiction to Xanax, and now she doesn’t want to take any treatment
⁃ One of her alters is supposed to be British, so when he ‘fronts’ she speaks English with a strong French accent. How bizarre ! Her DID roomate also has a male alter who’s an English speaker!
⁃ Constantly praising her ‘acting skills’ saying « if I was faking, you should give me an Oscar! »
⁃ Alters are very stereotypical and check every box : she has every alter type that exist. A nurse in psychiatry even called her a « textbook case ». I call it a DissociaDID wannabe case.
⁃ Says some of her alters are now ‘hiding’ because of people thinking she’s faking; and threatens that some of them won’t appear on her yt channel anymore.
⁃ New alters are developping literally every week
⁃ Alters have different astrological signs.
⁃ Permanent questionning about her sexual orientation : based on tiktok tests (iykyk) she supposes she’s actually gay and her attraction for men comes from traumas. Some of her alters are gay and non binary as well. Not a proof of faking in itself but seems like another seek for attention.
⁃ All alters have cool names (Jay, Charly, Edward, Neige which means Snow in French)
⁃ When ‘Charly’ fronts, she says she gets eyebags (?!) how could that be possible? (Plus Charly is supposed to be a ghost)
- Advocates against « invalidating and hierarchizing traumas » and « having doubts about someone’s diagnosis or accusing them of faking ». She says : « if somebody announces that they have an illness, you must believe them. If you accuse them of faking then you have a problem. »
⁃ A lot of the caregivers in psychiatry who have seen her videos think she’s faking bc of her story being so caricatural. Even if she was not faking, they’ll still be angry at her for romantizing mental illnesses and trauma.
What I get from the majority of her tiktoks is a very narcissistic vibe. That would explain this permanent need of attention.

So here is a cringe compilation I made of a French girl who’s been pretending to have DID on tiktok and Youtube for approximately a year now. I included extracts of the many interviews she’s made, some ‘sad’ tiktoks where she victimizes herself, fake switches and alters showcase, and a bunch of other shit that makes me angry.
Didn’t blur the name of her account because she’s starting to get really famous in France and I think it is time to adress all of her bullshit, especially bc she inspires other young girls to start a DID yt channel. Do not consider this comp as a hate video tho, she definitively has problems that she should get help for but those problems do not include DID.
I did put all of my evidence in the automod reply! Did my best to make clear subtitles.
Also here’s the translation of a comment I saw under one of her yt videos that pretty much sums up everything wrong with this chick. I agree with everything that was said, shoutout to Jenny Jen on YT:
I went to find out about this disorder beforehand, which I don't deny, and I got his channel as a recommendation on YT. So I watched... And there, what a slap! The opportunism, the caricature of an existing disorder, the monetization of a pseudo suffering in his case... I saw his numerous funds, the patreon, and all the rest... For what, in the end? It's a sordidness for those who suffer from it, a contempt, a lack of humanity...
If she was sincere and her approach was just to raise awareness about this disorder, she would ask to make donations for research instead of blowing the money she begs for to strut around in hauls or on vacation. When I think of youtubers with cancer who died, who never asked for anything, just wanted to share the inevitable, to talk about their feelings about the evolution of the disease, their fear of death, the pain of their family who knew they were going to lose them...
When she does her Charly with her little hat, the hesitant voice, the pout, the white liner in the mucous membrane to give herself a pure, innocent look, big eyes... I want to roll on the floor laughing... Or the turkey ("Lucie") with big eyeliner and ponytail who plays the big bad confident... No but the clichés... With the Anglicisms, the stylized cards to present the alters... each one of his alters has time to make up, to do his hair and to dress differently... With an astro sign that goes well. The tics of language, the pouts, the intonations, the mimics... Strange I do the same in everyday life to adapt to my interlocutors and charm my entourage, well like all of us what is called situational or societal intelligence ... A bit of socio? Or psychology?
Even an 8 year old kid wouldn't believe it. Oh, and ask around, there's a PR agency behind it (it's in the info bar, right?)! She is not interviewed by chance ^^
Seriously, what's the deal with making illness or emotional disorders or whatever profitable, monetizable, even glamorous or cool? Have you all gone crazy or what?!
Now it's fashionable to have psychic problems, to be a zebra, HIP etc. all relayed by the media... Being healthy is also good?
Thank you so much for posting it here. I'm French and I absolutely can't believe how people can trust her. I am aware of a lot of French people who fake autism too on YouTube and it turns me angry as hell...
Yes I remember you messaging me after my post about the tics faker who was interviewed by Konbini, and I am glad not to be alone in this fight against French fakers! I think that the media like konbini, who are always looking for sensationalism, really have a role to play in this fight btw.
Amazing post. Thanks for compiling all of this. She reeks of hunger for fame.
Exactly! There are so many other ways to get famous ffs
I'm French too and that girl is probably one of the very first french DID fakers (since the only famous french DID fakers are her and that poor comedian from the "peculiar club" channel)
I remember her saying in a video that she used to be in a bilingual elementary school as a child (courses were taught in both french and english)
She initially became famous through tiktok. She has not always been talking about DID in her tiktoks. Since she knows English she must have spent a lot of time on the american tiktok, and that's certainly where she got the idea to introduce the fake DID trend in France lmao
Her tiktok blew up when she made her first video about DID
She has become an actual figure in this field since almost nobody in France had heard of the DID videos trend until she started doing her stuff
Finding a video topic that works in English speaking countries and introducing it in another country is how a lot of people become famous
That is a great analysis. Oh, and the « peculiar club » is such a shitshow as well. I am so tired of that trend, having to deal with the French fakers after all the American ones is fucking exhausting. What makes me even more desperate is that it doesn’t seem to be stoppable :((
