Anyhow Tiktokers moved on from pretending to be autistic or having tourette, now they are all into pretending to be dead "as a prank"
I get the point of this video but only applies when the country doesn't have public health, there's no excuse to not get a proper diagnosis if it's free and available.
I don't live with public healthcare, but I've heard that availability can be difficult in countries with public healthcare. What I've seen many people in those countries is that they are either denied an referral for an assessment by a general practitioner that likely doesn't know what to look for, the general practitioner is denying a referral to make a misguided point, or that the wait to be assessed can be up to 3 years.
