I've been catfishing online and I'm addicted to it.
Why are you lying about your identity?
Yes. There is little doubt about it, because I was diagnosed with PTDD by my therapist.
You shouldn't think that it is okay to catfish. You could hurt people with your lying, and instead you should try being yourself instead when you talk to people online. You may find some really good relationships by just being yourself.
It wouldn't hurt to catfish though. I would still have all the things that I love equally and I still be good to do all the things that I love.
You are right that it would not hurt you, but it will definitely hurt others. That is why it is wrong to catfish.
