When you struggle to find the equivalent of a word or phrase in another language, do you sometimes find yourself opening Wikipedia, searching for it then navigating to the "languages" section to get its title in the other language?
Well, I do, and I got tired of it, hence:

I'm looking for another authenticity/sensitivity reader, this time for dissociative identity disorder.
It's for feedback on a character in a graphic novel I'm translating.
Ideally they'd have experience with SR, comics, and historical fiction.
Got any recs?
