da but you'd be both side-eyed and liked. plenty of people would like to read it, while plenty of others would feel like some of the anons here. some people are interested in the psychological aspect of it and would really like to read it if done well (good taste and research), while others just want it the way they want any other au.
because you'd basically be using idols as puppets to see how people with disabilities should be treated? maybe not the clearest phrasing, i'm not sure how to explain my exact point but i'm just not comfortable with it, it's disrespectful especially if you're "doing it lightheartedly because it interests you".
da and i'm a psych major too and i would think another one would not want to exploit mental illness for a plot :/
ia with you! i've read some well done mental/sensitive issues fic (one off the top of my head is gyzym's we are emergencies for the avengers' clint/natasha) but yeah kpop fandom is always using terminal illness and shit as a plot device which sucks
i really don't think doing it lightheartedly would help...
kpop fandom generally does embarrassing things though and is exceptional at avoiding characterization but that applies to all fandoms, i suppose. and thank you for the tip, anon, i'll look up this clint/natasha! i'm not saying doing it with the amount of sensitivity it deserves is impossible. it's just very, very rare.

there is nothing lighthearted about mental illness
oh i totally get why you would immediately think it would turn out bad. i can't even think of a good kpop fic like this atm. there's a lot of "they're lyk crazy n look how fun and omg creepy this is lyk so dark n edgy" but i've read good fics as well, at least in other fandoms. (although i do prefer it when people write this stuff in original rather than fan fiction)
i can make a list or sth at some point

(Anonymous) 2012-11-26 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)mine is like "i want to vomit into your eye and then fuck you"
yep exactly. personally i can enjoy good hurt/comfort in the sense of like, one of them gets physically ill like a cold or sth or (to bring another fandom into it again) a footballer gets injured during a match and is taken care of, because of course shit like that happens and character dynamics explored could be interesting. but once fandom starts veering into magical healing cocks for depression and terribly researched temporary amnesia for the sole purpose of getting two dudes to bone i'm just like PEACE, i am nhft
op of the thread here and orz the idea sounded good in my head ok ;;
i've never come across a good kpop one but i remember reading one in an old fandom that was quite well done though it wasn't addressing a particularly intense disability. (and yes, exactly! it's not something i can explain but putting it in fanfiction makes me so fucking uncomfortable. it feels cheap and gimmicky, like you can't have your character as they are so use ploys to make them more interesting or lovable. maybe it's an extreme reaction but it's just a very personally rooted one so i find it hard to shake.)

i'm not as furiously against it as some people, i just don't understand how it didn't cross your mind that not everyone likes this type of fic
i have never injured myself before but i really want to rn. how do you stop these urges?
anon. most people read aus about mental illness for either a tragic death ending or a happy love-fixes-everything ending. this ignores that a lot of the time there isn't really an ending. even if conditions improve for people, they're not "cured". they still have to live with the possibility of relapse. and a lot of the time, just doing research in textbooks and websites won't be enough to make writers realise exactly what they're doing. i mean. i'm mentally ill. i've written fic from my knowledge, which makes it highly subjective and there's a shitload of projection there. but even knowing that, i am most likely not going to post it. these things i've written scare me and to a reader, it would just be entertainment. maybe someone could identify with the things written, but it would be rare if they gave it a chance because of how these things are generally handled.
tldr don't do it, especially if you're doing it "lightheartedly"

of course it did! not everyone can like everything. i guess i just didn't really think that people would take it this way? (and in all honesty, i'm a bit dumb so after watching movies/shows like i'm a cyborg but that's ok, welcome to the quiet room and the new season of american horror story got me inspired and a bit too excited :/)
da and exactly. everything is not going to be alright just because you start dating somebody.
that's what i meant by people not liking it lol that they would despise it, some for very personal reasons.
any triggering content should be thought carefully (well, if you care about how other may feel about it) because there's always going to be a strong reaction from at least someone.

make my hands busy with something else. if i have stuff available, i bake, but avoid anything with knives, it helps if there's someone else in the kitchen, and i'll ask them to do the dishes for me. rubiks cube. i did this for a long time, because after a point it was just rote memorisation and applying algorithms and i may have cut my fingers on the edges but that was accidental, and after a few hours the urge goes away. there's also knitting, or origami. alternatively i get on skype and webcam with a friend bc if there's someone watching me i can't and if we talk for long enough it'll go away too!
