No offense, but this is actually a huge pet peeve for me.
People often get the misconception that schizophrenia is a murderious, psychotic kind of disorder. The one with different personalities. Split personalities has absolutely nothing to do with schizophrenia. Imma quote:
"Schizophrenia is a serious disorder which affects how a person thinks, feels and acts. Someone with schizophrenia may have difficulty distinguishing between what is real and what is imaginary (For example they can show symptoms such as hearing voices and seeing things that aren't there and they might get paranoid) ; may be unresponsive or withdrawn; and may have difficulty expressing normal emotions in social situations.Contrary to public perception, schizophrenia is not split personality or multiple personality. The vast majority of people with schizophrenia are not violent and do not pose a danger to others. Schizophrenia is not caused by childhood experiences, poor parenting or lack of willpower, nor are the symptoms identical for each person."
Edit: I wanna point out that I have never actually SEEN Higurashi, however, I know they murder people a lot, so I'm guessing it's the same stereotype as always. Also, I don't want you to feel uncomfortable, I just want to clear up some misconceptions~
Other pet peeves include
- One second being super excited for something, then ending up not helping you out or changing their mind at the last second.
- "It's okay for me, but when you do it, it's the worst thing that could ever have happened"
- People chewing loudly.
